Friday, October 18, 2024 – President William Ruto’s Senior Economic Advisor Moses Kuria has hinted at the next Deputy President following the impeachment of Rigathi Gachagua by the Senate yesterday.
Taking to his X account
yesterday, Kuria advised Mt Kenya region residents to consider supporting a
politician from Mt Kenya East as its next leader in an indirect endorsement of
Interior Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki, who is keen to replace Gachagua.
According to the former Pubic
Service Cabinet Secretary, it was in the best interests of the community to
support someone from Mt Kenya East insisting the time was ripe.
He reminded the region that it
was done with paying its external debt by voting for President William Ruto in
the 2022 election.
Kuria while expounding his
opinion, warned that Mt Kenya West, where he hails from, risks isolation in
subsequent election cycles if the bloc fails to rally behind a candidate from
Meru or Embu.
“My beloved House of Mumbi. In
2022 we paid external debts by voting for a non Mt Kenya candidate,” Kuria
commented.
“The time has come for us to
complete the debt-paying season by paying our domestic debt by supporting our
Meru and Embu siblings to lead us. History will judge us right. Take it
from your economist son,” he added.
Kuria's latest sentiments also
followed his recent advice calling for peaceful and harmonious co-existence
between Mt Kenya and other communities in the country.
While underscoring the need for
unity, Kuria said it was the only way to ensure the Mt Kenya region was well
represented in the government now and in the future.
