Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has called on Kenyans to have confidence in the Ruto Administration as it tackles the challenges facing the nation.
Mr Gachagua also appealed to the youth, particularly the Gen Z, to be patriotic, and call off the peaceful protests they are advocating.
The Deputy President reiterated that the activation has been infiltrated by people with criminal intent who have been looting shops and destroying property.
They should now halt the demonstrations and give the President and government, room to implement their grievances in a peaceful environment.
“As a country, let us not lose hope. There may be challenges on economy and politics but be hopeful. I would like to give hope to the people of Kenya that we shall surmount the challenges,” he said at PCEA Kayole Parish, Nairobi County yesterday during a Church service and celebrations of 32 years since the establishment of the Parish.
“But let us also be proud of the peace in our nation and unity. We thank God for what he has done. There are challenges and they will be resolved,” he added.
On peaceful protests by young people, the Deputy President said the Government is addressing the issues they have raised.
“The young people, (Gen-Z), have spoken and their issues will be addressed. The President has heard you and he has started acting on the issues. I am pleading with you as your parent. We thank you for your patriotism. You have made a huge contribution but do not allow the activation to be hijacked by criminals to loot, destroy property and creat mayhem,” he told the youth.
Addressing the people outside the church, Mr Gachagua added that the Government is also listening to the Clergy in order to entrench good governance.
He advised Kenyans to be electing steadfast leaders capable of articulating their issues, uniting the country and offering solutions to challenges facing them.
“Always choose wisely during elections. Choose good leaders who will advocate for issues of public interest,” he added.
To those who have been criticising him over his honesty on governance, the Deputy President maintained he will continue being truthful.
He was in the company of the area Embakasi Central MP Benjamin Gathiru Mejja Donk, James Gakuya (Embakasi North), Jayne Kihara (Naivasha), Samuel Parashina (Kajiado South), Wanjiru Mwangi (Nominated) and MCAs led by Kayole Central Ward Representative Jeremiah Karani, among other leaders.
On crackdown of illicit brews and drugs, Gachagua said the government will not allow return of the vices as he asked politicians to keep off the exercise.
“The Government cannot allow the merchants of death to operate. They have been selling poisonous drinks in disguise of alcohol. Were it not for the intervention of the President, our youths were heading for destruction and extinction. Some families had broken down,” he said.
“There were politicians who wanted the return of illicit brews. They want to reverse the gains made in the short period the Government has been conducting the crackdown”.
