President Uhuru Kenyatta has said that the opposition figures are not genuine in telling chiefs that if elected they will increase their salaries, pointing out they are the same ones who vowed to do away with provincial administration in 2013.
“They are the same people who said they would do away with chiefs, now they are lying to them that they will increase their salaries when he is elected. Such people should not be trusted,” said President Kenyatta.
Deputy President Ruto enumerated the programmes undertaken by the Jubilee administration to transform the country ranging from free maternity programme, electricity connections, waiving of exam fees, road construction and the Standard Railway as some of the successes and reason for Kenyans to give Jubilee a second term.
He told the Machakos residents that the opposition had no agenda to uplift the lives of Ukambani residents as reflected in their manifesto.
Others speakers included National Assembly Majority Leader Aden Duale, Jubilee candidate for Nairobi gubernatorial seat Mike Sonko, Jubilee Women Rep aspirant for Machakos, Agnes Muthama, and Rose Wambua who is also vying for Kagundo Parliamentary seat on a Jubilee ticket among others.
