President Uhuru Kenyatta has underscored the need for all Kenyans to put the interests of the country above those of individuals regardless of political inclination, saying that way Kenya will achieve its development aspirations.
The President said Kenyans – whether in Government or in the Opposition – must know that they need to stand together despite their political differences to defend, protect and preserve the country’s sovereignty.
“I do hope that going forward Kenyans will begin to recognise that there are times when national interests supersede our own petty political differences. There are times when we must come together,” President Kenyatta said.
