“There will be no room for empty rhetoric, personality-driven, divisive, and tribal politics that have for far too long held our country back,” he stated.
The President concluded by presenting his local and national programme for transformation, stressing that government initiatives are designed to directly address community needs while building sustainable development for all Kenyans.
“Addressed residents of Kapsabet town, Nandi County, and outlined the local and national programme for transformation,” he conlcuded.
The president encouraged unity, reduced tribal divisions, and fostered national cohesion ahead of the next electoral cycle.
