Deputy President Kithure Kindiki expressed confidence in Kenya's potential to become a wealthy and developed nation, urging Kenyans to avoid skepticism and political divisiveness during the Vision 2060 national conversation. Speaking at KICC in Nairobi on August 12, 2026, Kindiki highlighted the government's progress in agriculture, specifically mentioning the registration of farmers and the increase in value chain production.

He also noted improvements in the maize flour and coffee sectors, attributing these changes to efforts aimed at moderating prices and eliminating cartels, which have benefited both farmers and consumers. Kindiki expressed pride in the progress made under President William Ruto's administration, stating that the country has stabilized its economy and fostered economic development.

He emphasized the importance of continued focus on long-term development plans rather than engaging in political competition, asserting that Kenya's ambitions should transcend individual election cycles.
