_{In his book; The Art of War, Chinese philosopher, military strategist and war philanthropist Sun Tzu stated that he will win he who has better trained officers and men a sage Kenya presidential hopefuls have put into practice.}

_{Former Agriculture Minister William Ruto has been laying ground for his 2022 course since 2013 when he joined forces with Uhuru Kenyatta. Winning the country’s top seat needs deep pockets, pragmatic strategies, extensive networks and great an army the very ingredients Samoei is currently collecting.}

_{His enemies have tried to deflate his wheel but the man from Sugoi has managed to remain politically a float. An opportunity had presented itself weeks ago and would he have flaunted it, then his 2022 bid would have easily materialized.}

_{Politically, Agwambo and William are immiscible courtesy of their divergent ideologies. Since 2018 handshake, Raila has been working with his erst arch rival Uhuru Kenyatta but the rumored bad blood between him and leaders allied to Kenyatta II nearly threw Jaramogi’s son off the Handshake and BBI bus an intrigue that would have necessitated Ruto-Raila Coalition.}

_{Uhuru playing Raila and Ruto at once would have been his greatest political miscalculation for the two had started sending, ‘come-buddy-signals’ to each other. Assuming the above reunion occurred, all Samoei needed was to negotiate to fly the flag with Baba blessing his bid. Staking on their massive political statues and influential capabilities, theirs would have been unstoppable a tsunami.}

_{To spoil Ruto’s chances, Uhuru ingeniously responded by gripping his elder brother from going astray. This has verily denied William the much needed stone for his sling. It would have been an easy win for the DP with Raila’s support but since he has lost him, the second in command will have to work extreme harder to carry the day. To him, Uhuru will remain to be perceived as a game spoiler.}
