Ugandan President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has said he will not take sides in the Kenyan presidential election scheduled for August 9, dispelling claims and rumours that Uganda and the ruling National Resistance Movement Party (NRM) support Deputy President William Ruto who is seeking to succeed President Uhuru Kenyatta.
DP Ruto, ODM leader Raila Odinga, ANC party leader Musalia Mudavadi and several others — including former governors and diplomats — have expressed interest in running to become Kenya’s fifth president.
