Speaking on Thursday, Joho boldly told Ruto that he will be re-elected in 2027.
Joho's statement has sparked wild reactions across the country, coming just days after the TIFA poll showed Ruto tied with Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna.
Supporters of Ruto celebrated Joho's promise, saying it proves that the Broad-Based government is united and ready for 2027.
"Joho is right. Ruto deserves a second term because of development," one supporter said.
Others said Joho's voice is powerful in the Coast and Nyanza, and his support will help Ruto win easily.
"When Joho speaks, the Coast listens. Tutam is real," another supporter said.
However, critics mocked Joho, saying he was only praising Ruto to protect his Cabinet job.
"Joho is just doing sycophancy. Kenyans will decide, not Joho," one viewer said.
Others said Joho's promise will not change the mood on the ground, where many Kenyans are struggling with the high cost of living.
"Kenyans are tired. No promise will save Ruto in 2027, it is Wantam," another viewer said.
One thing is clear Joho has thrown his full weight behind Ruto, and his promise has set the 2027 debate on fire.
