Laikipia Women Rep Cate Waruguru has made a stunning U-turn on Deputy President William Ruto, just days after criticizing him and leaving the Tanga Tanga outfit.

On June 20, 2020, Waruguru sparked controversy on Twitter by claiming that Deputy President William Ruto was running a parallel government to sabotage President Uhuru Kenyatta. This was in response to Ruto's decision to open a parallel Jubilee Party office, dubbed Jubilee Asili.

Waruguru's comments were directed at Ruto's move, which she saw as a betrayal of President Kenyatta's trust. She accused Ruto of owing over 10 million Jubilee supporters an apology for going behind the President's back.

However, just days later, Waruguru was spotted sitting at the same table as President Uhuru Kenyatta and DP William Ruto at a Jubilee Party gathering. This has raised eyebrows, given her recent criticism of Ruto.

Waruguru's U-turn has sparked debate, with many wondering what led to her change of heart. The Laikipia Women Rep has been a staunch supporter of the Uhuru-Raila axis, and her recent comments suggest that she may be trying to distance herself from the Tanga Tanga outfit.

As the situation continues to unfold, one thing is clear: Laikipia Women Rep Cate Waruguru's U-turn on DP William Ruto has sent shockwaves through the political landscape.
