President Uhuru Kenyatta and Deputy President William Ruto have asked their supporters to elect leaders who won during the recent Jubilee Party nomination exercise come the August General Election.
The President and his deputy said unless all the Jubilee candidates vying for various positions were supported, the party would not be able to push its agenda if it wins the August polls.
The leaders thanked those who lost during the recent Jubilee Party primaries and who have continued to support those who won, saying they will be accommodated when Jubilee forms the next Government.
President Kenyatta particularly saluted former Subukia MP Nelson Gaichuihi for accepting the wish of the people to remain in Jubilee after losing in the recent nomination exercise.
“For us to push our agenda, I ask you (voters) to elect Jubilee leaders. By doing so you will help the party push its agenda with ease when it wins the next election,” said President Kenyatta.
Deputy President Ruto said Jubilee supporters should embrace a six-piece suit to enable the party execute its mandate well after the August polls.
“If Jubilee had no enough MPs in Parliament, it could have been difficult for us to execute our mandate. This is why I ask you to elect Jubilee leaders,” said the Deputy President.
President Kenyatta said Jubilee was focused on the unity of 45 million Kenyans unlike the Opposition, which was only interested in 10 million voters to get to power.
The President said Jubilee was committed to the unity of all the Kenya’s ethnic communities.
“Our focus as Jubilee is to bring together all the 45million Kenyans while the interest of those in Opposition is to get 10million voters to enable them get to power,” said the President.
