President Uhuru Kenyatta has accused Opposition coalition NASA leaders of dividing Kenyans along ethnic lines.

Speaking on Saturday during his tour of Meru county, the Head of State said the opposition was not keen to unite the country, citing the "10million strong" slogan by NASA.

He further affirmed his administration's commitment to uniting the country ahead of the August polls.

“For us, we are conscious of where we are coming from and what the seeds of discord had cost this country and that is why we seek to promote peaceful co-existence of all Kenyans,” he said.

“As opposed, we seek to transform the lives of all Kenyans through innovative programmes such as free maternity care, last mile electricity connections and free primary and secondary schooling that will be rolled out from January,” he added.

President Kenyatta was accompanied by his Deputy William Ruto.
