President Uhuru Kenyatta has said that his trip to Kisii county has nothing to do with politics.
Uhuru while speaking at Kisii school on Wednesday during the meeting with Gusii opinion leaders drawn from Kisii and Nyamira Counties said his trip was based on development.
"I have not come to Kisii to play politics but, bring development to our people. Any politicians intending to link this visit to politics should shut his or her mouth," he said.
The Head of State urged Gusii leaders to shun divisive politics and focus on development.
"Elected leaders from Gusii region should put all their energies on development for the sake of improving the lives of the electorates. It is shameful for leaders to continue politicking without tangible development," said Uhuru.
He said his government will not sideline any region in matters development.
"My government is focused to ensure all corners of this country are developed. I don't wish to leave a bad legacy in 2022," he noted.
The President appealed to leaders to support the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) which is aimed at preaching peace across the country.
