Deputy President Kithure Kindiki Friday called on eligible voters to turn up and register in order to participate in the coming elections.
The DP said the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission’s ongoing registration is for them to be included in the voters’ roll, asking them to take full advantage of it.
“I want to ask all the eligible voters who have not registered to do so because it is their right to vote, but they will only participate if they are registered,” DP stated.
He spoke on Friday during Kangema Constituency Economic Empowerment Engagement at General Kago Stadium in Kangema town, Murang’a County.
“This is a democratic nation, and you can only choose your leaders through your vote.
I ask you to encourage our youth to register so they can elect the leaders they desire.
Without your vote, you cannot be in a position to participate in making that choice,” DP emphasised.
On development, Prof. Kindiki warned contractors handling development projects against laxity and sloppiness, saying the government will not entertain attempts to frustrate their delivery within the agreed timelines.
Prof. Kindiki said the administration is keen on timely completion of projects after investing billions of shillings for faster completion to benefit the people.
“We want all projects to be completed faster and on time. Contractors who are slowing down work, yet they have been paid, will be tasked to explain why they are frustrating government-funded projects,” said Prof. Kindiki.
He said all Mau Mau roads in the Mt. Kenya region must be completed on time, saying the government has released funds to the contractors, including those in charge of the sections in Kangema constituency.
