Deputy President William Ruto has said when Kenyans go to the polls in August, they will be choosing between Jubilee’s development track record and that of its competitors.

The Deputy President said the Jubilee administration’s development agenda has transformed the lives of Kenyans and spread benefits across the country.

Ruto was speaking in Nyeri County on Thursday during the Madaraka Day celebrations.

He cited the Standard Gauge Railway, thousands of Kilometers of road constructed, hundreds of Technical Training Institutes set up countrywide, electricity projects and supporting county governments as pillars of the transformation agenda.

“The transformation of Kenya is not just on course, it has picked momentum and it is unstoppable,” the Deputy President said as he also called for peaceful August polls.

He lauded President Kenyatta’s policy to have national days also celebrated in other parts of the country outside Nairobi, saying the move was a step in the right direction in uniting the country.

“I am very proud to be a member of a team that is engaged in building bridges of friendship and partnership among all the people of Kenya,” the Deputy President said.
