Deputy President Kithure Kindiki said he is fully focused on executing his duties as he supports President Ruto to win a second term in the coming elections.
The DP said he is performing his roles as the second in command and will not let go the seat as he is working hard to ensure faster delivery of all projects carried out by the government across the country.
“I am the Deputy President. This seat is going nowhere and when we are done with the second term we will progress ahead in search for the higher office,” DP stated.
He spoke on Sunday at Kariene town in Central Imenti Constituency, Meru County where he stopped to address residents after attending the Induction and Installation Service of Bishop Doreen Mwathe as Bishop of Abothuguchi Synod, Methodist Church of Kenya in Kirigara, Central Imenti.
He said he is a veteran politician who knows how and when to politick dismissing attempts to drag him to engage in idle talk.
“As a veteran politician, we know when to talk, when to do politics and when to work for the people. It will not be engaging in idle talk every day because we have a lot to do for the people,” he noted.
Presently, he said, he will focus on development and completion of ongoing projects to ensure the lives of the people are better.
“It is about what you have done for the people because at the end it will be what you delivered to them,” he insisted.
Prof. Kindiki said several projects are ongoing in Meru County and are set for completion before the next elections.
Among them are many road projects recently launched and progressing to completion on time.
The upgrading of Meru Referral Hospital to Level 6 is on course and the redesigning of Nithi Bridge will commence soon.
Gakoromone Modern Market in Meru town is also underway and will be the largest in the country once complete.
Mariene University in Central Imenti has also been earmarked for completion.
The DP also said key economic policies by the government are bearing fruit pointing at the reduced fuel prices and other macro-economic indicators affirming the good health of the country’s economy.
“The petrol prices have come down by 4 shillings. The prices have been reducing since 2022 because of the interventions by the President,” he indicated.
The DP was accompanied by Meru Governor Mutuma M’ithingia, Deputy Governor Linda Kiome, MPs Kirima Ngucine (Central Imenti), Mpuru Aburi (Tigania East), County Assembly Speaker Ayub Bundi, MCAs and other leaders.
