On August 22, 2021, a significant shift in Kenya's politics was observed, with Yoweri Museveni, the President of Uganda, seemingly moving closer to William Ruto, the Deputy President of Kenya.
The development is attributed to the growing closeness between Uhuru Kenyatta, the former President of Kenya, and Raila Odinga, the former Prime Minister of Kenya.
According to sources, this new closeness has pulled Museveni closer to Ruto, sparking questions about the motivations behind this new alliance.
The puzzle of what draws Ruto and his United Democratic Alliance (UDA) into orbit with Museveni remains unsolved, leaving many to wonder about the implications of this new development.
