ODM party leader Raila Odinga criticised the Jubilee government’s projects a day after Jubilee announced its score card in the last four years it has been in power.
During the launch of a delivery portal as a platform to trace government’s developments, Monday, Jubilee leadership led by president Uhuru Kenyatta said it had fulfilled most of the promises they made to Kenyans.
However, Raila has termed the information portal as Jubilee’s public relations website aimed at trying to convince doubting Kenyans that it had a record worthy of re-election. .
Speaking to journalists, Tuesday, the Opposition leader pointed out loopholes in key areas of what Jubilee said it had achieved.
“Jubilee says power output has risen by 657 from 1,765 MW in 2013. Yet manufacturers and domestic users are feeling the pinch of frequent electricity outages and power surges,” Raila said.
“National security has been the home of old school corruption. As we have bought equipment, we have suffered more attacks than at any one time in our history, thanks to our unending war in Somalia and the corruption in vital sectors of the administration. Jubilee may be banking on Kenyans forgetting fast.”
“Jubilee claims to have engineered a social inclusion project that has seen vulnerable families benefit from a cash transfer programme. The truth is that the cash transfer programme was launched by the Grand Coalition Government,” he said.
