The past month has witnessed heightened political activity, with several meetings convened to drum up support for both sides.
The meetings were launched last month at the Kajiado home of Cotu boss Francis Atwoli and was attended by Kanu leader Gideon Moi and several local MPs.
Deputy President William Ruto has launched an all-out political war against President Kenyatta in Kajiado County in what looks like a battle for the political soul in the Head of State’s backyard.
Two camps have emerged in the county’s Jubilee wing, with leaders now positioning themselves behind President Kenyatta and Opposition leader Raila Odinga on one side and DP Ruto on the other.
