Eldoret North MP William Ruto was on Wednesday forced to call a local FM Radio station after Lugari MP Cyrus Jirongo made accusations against him.
Mr Jirongo had just declared his intention to leave the G7 Alliance and seek a new political direction, claiming that Mr Ruto was being used by forces close to State House.
He said that the United Republican Party presidential contender had stopped picking his calls. However, Mr Ruto made a surprise call a few minutes later and refuted the claims.
Invited for talks
And he invited him for talks at his office after he was done with the talk-show to which Mr Jirongo agreed.
According to Mr Jirongo, Mr Ruto had fallen for the tricks of Mt Kenya forces and was now playing to their whims, a claim the Eldoret North MP denied.
“There is no trust between members of the G7 Alliance. Everyone is running their own affairs. If we were one, we would be running the same programme and rallies,” said Mr Jirongo.
He claimed there was a plan by people close to State House to force a candidate on them.
