Former Azimio leader Raila Odinga's chief agent Saitabao Ole Kanchory has opened up about his relationship with President William Ruto.

He has revealed that he personally worked with Ruto long before meeting the Opposition chief, Raila.

"I met Ruto sometime in early 2010 when the debate on the then-proposed new Constitution was raging," Kanchory said on Wednesday.

In a book titled Why Baba Is Not The 5th, Kanchory who is also a Lawyer refers to Ruto as a real master of politics.

He explained that he has worked with both Raila and Ruto and in his opinion, Ruto knows his ways.

"William Ruto is an efficient person in the world of politics. He understands the psychology of the masters and he knows how to pre-empt. You can call him ( Ruto) a master of preemptive strikes and reverse psychology," he stated.

Kanchory explained that the President acts fast in a political blitzkrieg, which was what Hitler used to overwhelm his opponents in World War Two.

However, knowing Ruto's traits, the lawyer said the President will not walk his talk of changing the economy.

"The long and short of it is that while William Ruto is very good at getting power, I have concluded in the book, that he will not fix the economy," Kanchory said.
