President Uhuru Kenyatta has promised Ukambani residents "a special place" for NASA presidential candidate Raila Odinga after the August 8 election.
Kenyatta spoke in Makueni County where he clarified that he was not forcing anybody to vote for him, but assured locals that he will outshine Mr Odinga.
“We have come to ask for your votes. We are not forcing you to vote for us. You may vote for whomever you want, but this time I assure you we will beat Raila Odinga. We will place him where he belongs,” Uhuru said.
While at Wote, the President warned chiefs allied to NASA that they will be punished after the general elections. He assured them that he has information about their political activities which goes against their employer (Jubilee).
“You think it is the opposition who is your employer? You have to understand that the motorbikes you are using were provided by Jubilee government. Do not think we don’t know what is happening in this area. We know what you are doing and we will deal with you after the election,” said Uhuru in Wote Town.
