MP Peter Kihungi requested former President Uhuru Kenyatta serve as mediator between angry youth and the government. Kihungi made this appeal during worship at Kiairathe ACK church in Kangema. The lawmaker believes Kenyatta can restore peace and improve economic conditions. Recent violent demonstrations have disrupted business activities nationwide. Young people have died during confrontations with authorities.

Kenyatta attended the East African Community and Southern African Development Community summit at State House last Friday. The summit addressed peace efforts in the Democratic Republic of Congo. President William Ruto toured Kenyatta through the renovated State House afterward. Protesters organized demonstrations on Tuesdays and Thursdays across the country. Nairobi residents could work only three days weekly due to disruptions.

Murang'a County businesses lost 500 million shillings from the protests. Kihungi argued that Kenyatta has the leadership experience for successful mediation. The former president remains neutral and seeks no reelection. Jubilee party members participate in the Kenya Kwanza government. Business owners desire political stability for their investments.
