It is highly likely that President William Ruto and Azimio leader Raila Odinga are going to cut a deal governance expert Prof Macharia Munene has said. If that does not work, the next thing is to cut a deal – that will give Raila hope that in future, he might get the big job. Once they reach an understanding, they will cut a deal and the protests will end. The papers can, however, show that Raila is popular, creating the climate for a revolution (mapinduzi), but there is no way Raila is going to remove Ruto from State House. When it comes to a point that he cannot remove Ruto, they will cut a deal.
