h-e-isaac-ruto-egh.jpg Bomet Governor, Isaac Ruto, has formed a new party that he intends to use to contest for the Presidency in 2017 Presidential election.According to Kuresoi South MP, Zakayo Cheruiyot, Ruto together with Kwale Governor Salim Mvurya have already agreed on the name of their political vehicle.The name of the party isChama Cha Ugatuzior Devolution Party of Kenya.The two Governors have tasked certain individuals to process its registration.Other governors who have contributed to the formation of the party include, Meru Governor, Peter Munya, and Bungoma Governor, Ken Lusaka.Zakayo Cheruiyot is in charge of the registration of the party and he has warned Deputy President, William Ruto, against interfering with the affairs of the Kipsigis community.According to Cheruiyot, the Governors have billions of shillings in devolution funds available and will each use the resources to market the party.The lawmaker, who is a close ally of Governor Ruto, said the party is aimed at clinching the Presidency in 2017, by sending President Uhuru and his deputy to opposition, who he said are against devolution.This new development will be viewed by many as strategy by governors aimed at guarding their constitutional powers which they fear to be deprived by uhuruto govt which boasts of tranny of numbers in parliament.Lately governors have cried foul of what they term as funding of Mcas' by uhuruto to oust them via impeachments.As this continues mwananchi has to wait abit longer for devolution to become a reality.

Even during our dinner...
