President Uhuru Kenyatta with NASA leader Raila Odinga (photo/nation. co.ke)President Uhuru Kenyatta on Monday made three appeals to his longtime rival Raila Odinga.
An agitated Uhuru expressed his displeasure on the path Raila is leading his supporters and noted that it is not good for the country.President Uhuru, on Monday while on a campaign trail in Garissa, accused Raila Odinga of deaming Kenyans their constitutional right of voting.This follows Raila's latest move of withdrawing from the repeat presidential poll that has since thrown Kenyans in a spinning mode.Secondly, the Head of State urged Mr Odinga to respect the Supreme Court ruling which ordered the IEBC to conduct a repeat election in 60 days."You are the one who took this case to the Supreme Court seeking a new election, the court ordered a fresh poll in 60 days.You should, therefore, respect the court orders and let us continue with the election," President Kenyatta statedLastly, Uhuru appealed to the former Premier to retire from politics peaceful instead of knocking Kenyans on each other pitilessly."If you are not ready don't disrupt those who are ready. If you are not ready go home and rest," the President stated.NASA leaders have ,however, maintained that they will not take part in the sham process, accusing the electoral body,IEBC of sidelining with jubilee to give them stolen victory.
