Deputy President Kithure Kindiki defended the broad-based government for ensuring development in every part of the country.
Prof. Kindiki said the cooperation between President William Ruto and former Prime Minister Raila Odinga is aimed at building the nation without any forms of discrimination.
He spoke on Friday during Muhoroni Economic Empowerment for women, youth and people with disabilities at Midika Grounds, Muhoroni Constituency, Kisumu County.
“All of us in the broad-based government led by President William Ruto will ensure every part of the country including Kisumu and Nyanza region benefits from development.
There is no room for discrimination anymore,” he said.
While praising Odinga for sacrificing his interests for the good of the nation, he said he will always be respected for his belief in the country’s unity and development.
“Raila has cast aside own interests in favour of a better nation.
We respect him for what he has done for our country.
He has made sure his own interests don’t supersede the nation’s,” DP added.
Since the broad-based government came in place, several projects have been realized in the region including revival of the sugar factories, revival of stalled roads, expansion of electricity connection, initiation of affordable housing program, construction of fish landing sites and empowerment of beach management units.
“President Ruto decided that after elections all Kenyans deserve development because no government is elected to serve a community or a section of the country. It serves all Kenyans equally,” he reiterated.
