Kindiki: Political violence sponsors, perpetrators to pay heavily

Deputy President Kithure Kindiki has declared that those inciting political violence will face severe consequences, emphasizing the need to preserve Kenya's peace amid political differences. He cautioned against using political motives to justify attacks on opponents or damaging their properties. Kindiki stressed that politics is distinct from warfare and vowed not to tolerate any attempts to undermine the nation's cohesion.

At a development visit in Othaya Constituency, Nyeri County, he inspected completed projects and unveiled new initiatives, including a tarmacked road and electrification projects. He vowed to ensure peaceful elections and crackdown on illicit alcohol, which he said is harming young people and burdening society. Kindiki also highlighted numerous ongoing development projects worth billions of shillings, assuring residents they will be completed and announcing plans for additional projects in the future.
