Machakos Senator Johnstone Muthama has said that Coalition for Reforms and Democracy (Cord) will hold a series of street demonstrations to force President Uhuru Kenyatta to resign over corruption.
Muthama said the President was doing nothing to curb the mega corruption scandals which he said were now threatening to plunge the country into a crisis.
Speaking at a press conference in his office in Nairobi, Muthama who is a member of the Cord management committee said that the opposition will not give the Jubilee administration notice on when the street protests will be held.
“Mark my words, where we are now, we have no one to defend or protect us. But we are not going to give notice to the government to rectify their misdeeds. Very soon we will be on the streets and it will not be business as usual,” said Muthama.
The same sentiments were echoed by ODM party leader Raila Odinga over the weekend who said that there was no point for the President to stay in office if he could not fight graft.
“The President knows those behind the theft of funds at the Ministry of Health; he should leave office and let those capable of running the government take over,” he said.
