Kapseret Member of Parliament Oscar Sudi is now calling for the intervention of President Uhuru Kenyatta following the enhanced war on graft that has been seen as targeting parastatal heads from the Kalenjin community.
In a passionate and lengthy Facebook post, Sudi, a close ally of Deputy President William Ruto claimed recent arrests of individuals linked to graft were biased noting that “Our sons and daughters working in various state cooperations are now working in fear and agony due to the current purge on corruption.”
The vocal Jubilee legislator said the Kalenjin and Gema communities had agreed to bury the hatchet and forge a unity deal among communities.
“I want to request the President; has he forgotten the covenant that the Kalenjin nation made with the GEMA nation in 2013? We agreed to bury the hatchet and forge a unity deal among the communities with the sole intention of transforming our country. But it seems the President has forgotten all this including the votes the Kalenjin nation overwhelmingly voted for him in 2002,2013,2017A & 2017B,” reads part of Sudi’s post.
“My President Uhuru Kenyatta how does it feel when the children and families of these innocent sons and daughters of Kalenjin are going through all these?” he added.
The MP, however, expressed optimism that God will open the eyes of the Head of State so as to enable him to handle ‘this critical issue’.
