Kindiki urges unity, tolerance in Mt Kenya region
The DP tells leaders and Mt Kenya residents to be cautious about their utterances.
Deputy President Kithure Kindiki called for unity in the Mt Kenya region during a fundraiser at Gaichanjiru Catholic Church in Kandara, Murang'a County. He emphasized that tolerance among residents and leaders is crucial for maintaining peace and harmony. Kindiki, who is from Tharaka Nithi, highlighted that his region supports President William Ruto, while the opposition primarily comes from the west.
Despite political competition, Kindiki urged residents to support the government in the 2027 elections and cautioned against divisive rhetoric. He also noted that stalled projects, such as the Mau Mau roads, are now progressing due to the government paying contractors' debts. Kindiki's remarks came after Public Service Cabinet Secretary Geoffrey Ruku proposed splitting the region into two – East and West – with the latter being more vocal about the move.
