A political storm is brewing after former Attorney General and Cabinet Secretary Justin Muturi launched a blistering attack on President William Ruto, accusing him of incompetence and questionable dealings during his time in office.
In remarks that have quickly gone viral online, Muturi did not hold back, claiming he was pressured into approving suspicious NGO-related documents that did not even exist.
“Ruto alisema am incompetent, alikuwa ananiletea NGO ambazo haziko na hazijulikani ati niweke sahihi nikaona huyu ni mkora baada ya uchunguzi,” Muturi alleged, suggesting that after his own scrutiny, he concluded there was more than met the eye.
The statement, which has sparked intense debate across political circles and social media platforms, paints a dramatic picture of behind-the-scenes tensions between the two senior leaders who once worked closely in government.
Muturi’s claims appear to respond to past public remarks by President Ruto, who had previously questioned his performance while serving as Attorney General, particularly on legal delays linked to government initiatives.
Although Muturi did not provide documentary evidence in the viral clip, his comments have already triggered fresh political backlash and divided opinion among supporters of both leaders.
Government allies have dismissed the allegations as politically motivated, insisting that Muturi is attempting to rewrite his record after leaving office.
Opposition figures, however, have seized on the remarks, calling for further scrutiny of government operations during that period.
The presidency has not yet issued an official response to Muturi’s latest accusations.
As the war of words escalates, political observers say the exchange could deepen existing rifts within Kenya’s ruling establishment and set the stage for further public confrontations in the coming days.
For now, the country watches closely as two once-allied figures trade increasingly sharp accusations in full public view.
