Deputy President William Ruto. [Stafford Ondego, Standard]Deputy President William Ruto had in 2019 contemplated resigning from the government. He, in fact, called the media to make the decision public, but a four-hour meeting with President Uhuru Kenyatta halted the move. The biography focuses on “the most consequential decisions” of Ruto’s political life and childhood, and his occupancy of the Office of the Deputy President. In the book, Uhuru tries to portray Ruto as “a ruthless careerist, a zero-sum political thunderdome who advocates for winners to displace losers”.
