Jamii Press has
learnt through a source in William Ruto’s United Republican Party that the
party has not yet struck a deal with Uhuru Kenyatta’s TNA despite reports to
the contrary in some sections of the media.
The URP source said that the party was ‘just in talks’ with
TNA “and free to do so with all parties'. The news comes as rumours of a
possible Uhuru-Ruto ticket in the run up to the next election continues to
gather steam.
Ruto has recently been relishing his new role of ‘king
maker’ regularly whipping the media into a frenzy every time he has a meeting
with ODM’s Raila Odinga , Uhuru or Musalia Mudavadi.
In related news, URP has revealed that it will hold its
nominations on the 7th of January 2013. That date could smack as
opportunistic to some because it will put the party in a perfect position to
absorb defectors from parties like TNA and ODM who will have already held their
nominations.
