Turn out in large numbers to vote, Uhuru tells supporters

President Uhuru Kenyatta on Tuesday, July 25, urged his supporters to turn out in large numbers on August 8th to vote for him and other Jubilee candidates.

This comes days after the Jubilee MPs under Uhuruto Express led by Othaya MP Mary Wambui camped in Nyeri for the second day to drum up support for President Kenyatta.

The Head of State said the achievements of his government over the last four years are commendable and are the result of the harmony in his administration.

“Over the last four years we have had a government that has been united and had no infighting. This has enabled us to lay down the foundation for progress. We have increased access to electricity and built roads,” said President Kenyatta.

The Jubilee Party leader said former President Mwai Kibaki’s two administrations were characterized by infighting.

“President Kibaki’s government would have implemented many projects but it was derailed by the current opposition leader,” said Kenyatta.

The Head of State who was accompanied by local leaders,  addressed supporters in Mukurweini in Mukurweini Constituency and Kiandu in Tetu Constituency, urging them to remain peaceful and ignore opposition attempts to create ethnic tensions.

The President is scheduled to address more rallies within Nyeri County before proceeding to Muranga County for another meet-the-people tour.

The Jubilee due are set to visit at least 30 counties within the next two weeks, most of them for the second time since the beginning of June.
