President Uhuru Kenyatta has warned that opposition leader Raila Odinga's continued politicking is hurting the economy of the country.
“Raila’s job from morning to evening is to criticise my government. Such utterances cannot bring development. He does not see any positive thing to talk about this country. I wonder why he wants to lead a bad country,’’ he said.
Speaking in Bungoma county on Thursday where he presided over the graduation ceremony of Kibabii University, the President further accused the opposition chief of doing nothing when Pan Paper Mill and Mumias Sugar Company were ran down when Raila served as Prime Minister.
“Some industries in western region began to collapse when Raila served as prime minister in the Kibaki government. I am trying my best to revive these factories to uplift the livelihoods of locals. Unfortunately, we are told we have no development record,’’ he said.
