First Lady Margaret Kenyatta addresses supporters during Jubilee Party campaign rally at Uhuru Park, September 9, 2017. [Photo|PSCU]First Lady Margaret Kenyatta made a rare move, when she joined her husband, Uhuru Kenyatta, to campaign at Uhuru Park, Nairobi, Saturday.Given that she had never appeared in a public rally to campaign, this one was unique, especially after she spoke in Kiswahili.Given the microphone to address hundreds of eager supporters at the historic grounds, the First Lady said a few words, sending her husband and the rest of the participants into laughter.She made a short speech in Kiswahili (a rare language she uses in public), saying: "Mimi nataka mpige kura kwa amani. (I urge you to vote peacefully)."Mrs Kenyatta's plea comes as Kenyans seek to go to the ballot, afresh, October 17, this time, only for the presidential vote, after the Supreme Court annulled her husband's re-election in the August election.
