President Uhuru Kenyatta has called on residents of Garissa to turn out in large numbers to re-elect him on October 26th.
Speaking in Garissa alongside his Deputy William Ruto, Uhuru said that he deserves another term because his government has done a lot for the people of Garissa.
The head of state said that the Jubilee leadership have initiated several projects in the North Eastern region, adding that the people need to back his second term bid.
“On the October 26, turn out in large numbers and vote for Jubilee so that we can beat Raila Odinga by a bigger margin compared to August 8 elections,” said President Kenyatta, as quoted by KBC.
The commander in chief of the armed forces also took a swipe at the leaders of the opposition led by Former Prime Minister Raila Amolo Odinga, saying that they have nothing to offer to Garissa residents.
“Our opponents have no agenda for the country, they believe the way to ascend to power is through chaos” he stated. The President also assured the residents that his government will take care of their needs if he is re-elected into power when that time comes.
