Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi has condemned the Sunday attack on Mumias East MP Peter Salasya at Nyayo Stadium.
Taking on social media, Mudavadi called on political intolerance terming it the very foundation of the country’s foundation and the reason why people hold various opinions.
- MP Peter Salasya beaten and forced out of Nyayo stadium
- 26-year-old arrested for distributing child pornographic materials in Mombasa
“What happened to Hon. Peter Salasya at Nyayo Stadium today is unfortunate. Political intolerance undermines the very foundation of our democracy, which relies on the ability to engage with differing views.” he said
He continued by admitting that although people may not always agree but respect, dialogue, and unity must remain non-negotiable.
“We won’t always agree, and that’s okay. But respect, dialogue, and unity must remain non-negotiable. Respect must be given, but it must also be earned.
Fellow Kenyans, no one else will build this nation for us. If we let division win, we risk tearing down everything we hope to build.
A house divided cannot stand. Let’s choose reason over chaos, and maturity over noise. Kenya’s future depends on it.” he said
The Prime CS was speaking after the legislator was attacked at the stadium before he was escorted outside in what could have been his recent remarks about former Prime Minister Raila Odinga.
