President William Ruto has said
he will not allow few individuals to ruin the future “of our children.”
“Corruption enterprise has
to come to an end. We will deal with them firmly,” he noted.
He said selfish interests
were frustrating development projects in the country.
“A few people cannot stop
us. We will pay the price to stop the vice,” he said.
President Ruto warned the
corrupt that they can no longer hide in courts with court orders.
“We will work closely with
the Judiciary to weed out those with retrogressive approach to work,” he
stated.
The Head of State was
speaking on Thursday at the Kakamega State Lodge where he met leaders from
Kisii, Nyamira and Migori counties.
Present were Education Cabinet
Secretary Ezekiel Machogu, Governors Simba Arati (Kisii), Amos Nyaribo
(Nyamira), as well as MPs, MCAs and grassroots leaders.
They all agreed to work with
the government in transforming Kenya, as the President asked the leaders to
rise above narrow political party interests that may undermine the country’s development.
“We made commitments as
leaders to the people of Kenya during campaigns. We now have an opportunity to
deliver them,” he said.
President Ruto further said
the promises are better delivered when leaders are united, stating; “Together,
we can provide leadership, empower Kenyans and build our country.”
Mr Nyaribo and Mr Arati both
agreed to work with the President to further devolution in their respective
regions.
