The push for secession is not only ill-timed but also ill-driven, Garissa Governor Ali Korane has said.
According to Korane, Kenyans who love this nation will not push for such a campaign. The county boss called upon leaders backing the idea of dividing the nation into two to rethink about the consequences. The sentiments of the county boss come after the Supreme Court upheld President Uhuru Kenyatta and his Deputy William Ruto’s re-election.He spoke during the opening ceremony of the fifth edition of the Kenya Inter-Counties Sports and Cultural Association Games at Kenyatta Stadium in Machakos“Talks of session and resistance should not be encouraged by participants or patriotic Kenyans,” Korane stated, as quoted by Citizen Digital.On his part, Machakos Governor Dr. Alfred Mutua rooted for the formation of the post of the Prime Minister and deputy. According to the county boss, the winner takes it all system is not ideal for this nation, which is divided into two“The culture of the winner takes it all has made some sections of the country feel that they have been left out. The amended constitution should create posts of Prime Minister, Deputy Prime Minister among others,” he said.
