He urged them to put away their differences and focus on development for the sake of Kenyans.

"If we work together, we can develop this country, but the problem we have is a clique of leaders who cannot differentiate development from politics. We have time for politics and time to concentrate on development," he added.

Speaking in Bamburi, Mombasa on Thursday, the Head of State further affirmed his administration's commitment to improving the living standards of all citizens. He also defended his government's developmental track record, noting that he has completed and initiated a lot of projects.

"Those saying we have not done anything in Mombasa and elsewhere at the Coast have no eyes to see all these projects," he said.
