Bonface Mwangi Exposes DP William Ruto's Affair With University Student

After being sued by Deputy President William Ruto for defamation, human rights activists Boniface Mwangi has added salt to the injury after making more allegations against Ruto. Through his lawyer Gitobu Imanyara, the activist on Friday filed counter-accusations against Ruto adding two more claims to prove his earlier sentiments that the DP “has no reputation worthy the indulgence of a court of justice”. In the defence papers submitted at the Milimani Law Courts, Mwangi claims that DP Ruto had an alleged exra-marital 'liaison' with a University student who bore him a child in 2006. “The defence and counterclaim also opens less known claims, such as William Ruto’s alleged extra-marital liaison with an unnamed university student, who bore his baby on March 6th, 2006. William Ruto allegedly neglected to support the baby until court action was threatened against him,” read a statement from the activist's legal team. More to that, Mwangi has turned the tables and sued Ruto for defamation accusing him of purporting that he (Mwangi) was a drunkard. “Defence filed on behalf of Boniface Mwangi, contains a counter-claim against Deputy President for defamation following comments that the Deputy President made on local media insinuating that Boniface Mwangi is a perpetual drunk, who routinely wakes up late to nurse a hangover,” added the team. According to his lawyer, the statement made by Ruto had caused Mr Mwangi distress and portrayed him in bad light. “As a consequence of the publication of the Deputy President's remarks, his reputation has been seriously damaged, he has suffered distress and embarrassment," stated Imanyara. Mwangi, in the 36-page defence denied defaming the DP but instead linked him to several scandals in corrupt land deals, businessman Jacob Juma's death, 2010 maize saga and the crimes against humanity case at the ICC which was terminated earlier in the year . As such, the vocal activist wants Ruto to pay him damages, cover the cost of the case and be declared unfit to hold office for violating the Leadership and Integrity Act. In the past month, Mwangi has been engaging in ugly spats with the DP's team with each side maintaining a hard line and daring to take each other head on in courts.
