The friendly fire between ODM and Kenya Kwanza leaders over the Road Maintenance Levy Fund (RMLF) could be the deal breaker in the so-called broad-based government.

The online spat that was started by Kisumu Governor Anyang' Nyong’o degenerated into a war of words, with President William Ruto's allies terming his remarks as an attempt to blackmail the President.

Prof Nyong'o had accused the President of trying to kill devolution by trying to creep back to the pre-devolution times. He said the Kenya Kwanza administration had failed to manage health effectively.
