President Uhuru Kenyatta has called on his competitors to shun engaging in politics and help his government unite Kenyans after a long electioneering period.
Speaking on Sunday during a Church service in Huruma, President Uhuru said that once sworn into office, he will ensure the country is peaceful and united after divisive politics that threatened to tear it apart.
“To my competitors, we didn’t compete because of the language one speaks or the tribe where one comes from, it is about ideas and there must be a winner and a loser because we are a democracy,” he said.
President Kenyatta says all leaders, his competitors included should now let Kenyans to heal after a tedious pro-longed electioneering period and allow the Government to embark on its developmental agenda.
“There is no need of disturbing Kenyans, they did their part, it is now our duty to sit and agree on what we should do to Kenyans.”
Uhuru is expected to be sworn into office for a second term on Tuesday even as the opposition NASA insists that he did not win the elections legitmately.
