Kenya's Deputy President Addresses Political Division.

Deputy President Kithure Kindiki stated Thursday that national progress requires unity rather than hatred or tribal divisions.

"You develop a country by converting resources into wealth and distributing it to many people," Kindiki said at a meeting with Isiolo County leaders. He emphasized the importance of sharing prosperity across all economic levels.

The Deputy President dismissed recent criticism about President William Ruto becoming a one-term leader. "I saw some people saying their motivation is to make William Ruto a one-term President. Really? How can that be your motivation as a leader?" Kindiki asked.

His comments responded to former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua's statements from Monday. At the DAP-K headquarters launch, Gachagua announced plans to challenge Ruto's administration and prevent his re-election in 2027.

"We shall be selfless as a team. We need proper arithmetic to avoid fighting each other," Gachagua said. "This journey requires courage. With great leaders, we will create a national movement."

Kindiki highlighted Ruto's achievement as one of only five Kenyans to serve as president. He expressed confidence that regardless of future terms, Ruto's leadership would improve Kenyan lives.

The exchange reveals growing political tensions as parties position themselves for the 2027 election. Leaders debate the balance between opposition politics and national development priorities.
