Inside Raila’s tactical Strategy and Team That Have Seen Him Beat Deputy President Dr William Ruto as The Preferred 2022 Presidential Candidate Just 3 Weeks After Unveiling His Candidature.
Just three weeks after launching his 2022 bid, Former Prime Minister and ODM party leader Rt Hon. Raila Odinga has deployed a ruthless team and an efficient strategy that has so far seen him overtake DP Ruto as the most prefereed presidential candidate in the 2022 contest based on a recent poll by infotrack.
While William Ruto has been chest-thumping on how he has the mountain in his pocket and splashing millions across the country, Engr Odinga retreated and emerged with an issue-based manifesto, clearly outlining what he will deliver and eclipsing the hollow hustler rhetorics riding on handouts and wheelbarrows.
Raila Odinga has also opted to meet who matters most-the voter amid claims that Ruto has been buying off politicians with his millions.
The Azimio la Umoja which is a brainchild of the ODM party leader seeks to rally Kenyans around unity and progress as opposed to the Hustler narrative that has been fingered for driving a divisive agenda and setting Kenyans apart.
And the results is showing off for all to see with the 2022 race just begining to heat up.
Former Prime Minister Raila Odinga would win the presidential elections if the polls ware held today beating Deputy President William Ruto but with a minimum margin, beating DP Ruto whose campaigns, critics say, began as soon as he stepped into office with nothing to show for the years he has been in government as the second in command.
The Poll, which gathered views of Kenyans on next year’s presidential elections, pointed out that the contest will be a neck-to-neck two-horse race.
According to the survey which was conducted between 17 September and 21 December, said Raila’s popularity stood at 33 per cent while that of Ruto was at 32 per cent only.
Infotrak Research and Consulting revealed that the poll which had a target sample size of 1,600 respondents who were 18 years and above at the time of the interviews was conducted the interviews through Computer Assisted Telephone Interviews (CATI).
The margin of error was plus or minus 2.45 per cent.
In what is definately bad news for Deputy President William Ruto, the poll showed DP’s popularity has been dropping gradually in the last year while that of Raila significantly shot up particularly after the last Azimio La Umoja Convention on 10 December 2021 where the ODM leader declared his candidature.
