Video of Moses Kuria Predicting Ruto-Raila Handshake Emerges: “Kuna Watu Wataachwa kwa Mataa”
A recently surfaced video features former Public Service Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria making predictions about the futures of ODM party leader Raila Odinga and President William Ruto.
This video, dated February 21, 2022, captures Kuria’s assertion that a political alliance between Ruto and Raila is inevitable, drawing parallels to similar alliances in previous administrations.
In the video, Kuria confidently states, “Raila Odinga and William Ruto will end up working together na kuna watu wataachwa kwa mataa (there are those that will be left in darkness).”
This bold prediction highlights Kuria’s belief that despite their differences, the two leaders would find common ground.
Kuria points out that Raila Odinga has spent most of his political career in opposition, but he has never truly been adversarial towards the sitting government.
Instead, Kuria suggests that Raila tends to eventually collaborate with the government after initially opposing it.
“He is always in the warm corner of opposition, not the cold side of it,” Kuria remarks, emphasizing Raila’s strategic positioning within the political landscape.
At the time Kuria made this prediction, William Ruto had not yet ascended to the presidency.

The political climate was tense, with Raila Odinga enjoying a close alliance with then-President Uhuru Kenyatta, making a future partnership between Raila and Ruto seem unlikely.
Kuria’s comments were therefore particularly provocative, as they implied a significant shift in the political dynamics of the country.
Kuria’s remarks underline a recurrent theme in Kenyan politics where former adversaries eventually find ways to work together.
This is a strategy that often leaves their supporters and other political players surprised and, as Kuria put it, “in the dark.”
His insight into the political maneuvering of both Raila and Ruto provides a fascinating glimpse into the potential for unexpected alliances and the ever-evolving nature of political relationships in Kenya.
This video and Kuria’s predictions offer a compelling perspective on the intricate dance of alliances and oppositions that characterize Kenyan politics.
It serves as a reminder of the unpredictable nature of political affiliations and the strategic calculations that leaders make in their pursuit of power and influence.
