“The President and I are focused on the job. The other leaders should focus on their jobs and service delivery too. The country needs us and citizens have great expectations. Let all leaders focus on service delivery, that is what Kenyans expect from us,” he said
“Some of us have no time for petty politics, we are busy people with a lot of work to do. We have no time to listen to nonsense, theatrics and drama. We want to focus on the job that we were given by Kenyans,” he continued
The statement by the Deputy President follows recent declarations by various leaders eying for the 2027 elections causing rift among themselves.
“It pains me a lot to see leaders tearing each other apart. I appeal to the leaders to work together for the development of the county. Kiambu is important to President Ruto and me, it gave us a lot of votes in 2022. I will convene a meeting to find a lasting solution to any squabbles. Please tone down on the high-octane politics,” said DP Gachagua
The statement also follows that of President William Ruto who called out leaders for engaging in politics when Kenyans are in need of their services being the leaders they elected to office.
