Solutions to challenges
“We will be back with BBI very soon. Let no one lie to you that it is about politics,” President Kenyatta said.
He urged Kenyans to be wary of naysayers and asked locals to ignore politicians misleading them on the initiative.
President Kenyatta further stated that political ambitions should not blur leaders on the need for solutions to challenges ailing the country.
“If there is a legacy I want to leave, it is that of unity so that no more blood is shed because of politics,” the President said.
