Jubilee leaders in Uasin Gishu county have castigated opposition leaders for threatening to ask their supporters to boycott some of the products and services in the county.
The leaders termed the move as an act of economic sabotage.
Addressing the press in Eldoret town on Friday, the leaders led by Governor Jackson Mandago asked the opposition not to turn political competition into economic sabotage.
They said Kenyans should remain united irrespective their political affiliations noting that the country depends on each other for economic development.
"There are many products that our people take to the so-called opposition strongholds just like those people also depend on products from us as and calling for products or services boycott will not so any good to this country," Mandago said.
"Raila and the opposition leadership should differentiate between a political competition that we are in now and the economic sabotage they are threatening to do," he added.
Opposition leader while declaring that the National Super Alliance (NASA) had been transformed to the National Resistance Movement (NRM) warned that they were contemplating asking their supporters to boycott products and services from some parts of the country.
