Nakuru Governor Kinuthia Mbugua has asked leaders in the county to put aside their political differences and work with him.
Mbugua told journalists that disunity among leaders in the county will derail development.
Mbugua said that he has no ill feelings against any leader noting that leaders and the people have their right to opinion.
He however said that inciting the people against the county government will not help but deny them development.
“I have no ill feelings against Nakuru leaders instead I welcome their opinions and criticism so long as it will help in realization of development.
Speaking at the county offices on Friday, Mbugua said that his agenda is to ensure that Nakuru people get services.
The governor added that it is time for politicians to get to work saying that time is quickly running out.
He also asked leaders to be on the frontline and preach peace among the many tribes in the county.
Mbugua said that unity and peace will catalyse development across the county. “My appeal is for leaders across Nakuru to be ambassadors of peace and unity,” he said.
The former Administration Police Commandant urged residents to be wary of leaders who are keen to divide them on tribal lines.
He told them (residents) to embrace each other and support his government as it focuses on development.
