Speaking today in Zombe, Kitui East, Kindiki urged leaders to showcase tangible development before their terms end or else see the door.
“All of us who have been moving across the country have held leadership positions. It’s time to show what we have achieved or else you will face the people’s judgement ” he said,
He emphasized that leadership is about delivering results, not political rhetoric noting that now the government has enough funds to initiate new and accomplish stalled developments projects before the end of the first tenure.
“We now have the resources. All idle leaders their exam should be marked. We don’t have room for politics. Now those in politics should prepare to step aside because leaders should focus on service delivery and not campaigns,’ he said
While calling for unity and stability, Kindiki urged Kenyans to reject divisive politics and embrace peaceful competition as the country moves forward.
Addressing locals, Kindiki emphasized the government’s unwavering commitment to transforming Kenya through peace, development, and truth-driven leadership.
“Politics should be a competition, not a fight. It must never breed enmity among citizens since we only have one Kenya,’ said the DP
Kindiki warned Kenyans not to be swayed by what he described as the “politics of deceit and conmanship” noting that some politicians thrive on creating anxiety in the public
He assured citizens that the government remains alert and fully committed to safeguarding peace and national stability as one of the core agenda .
“No one should be afraid of those making noise and predicting chaos. We know they are bitter because they failed to deliver when they held the top office. They were removed because they were busy preaching tribalism and not development ,”said Kindiki.
“Everyone has the freedom to lead, but not by threatening the peace of this country,” he added
