Deputy President Kithure Kindiki told Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka to stop making public attacks against him. Kindiki said he respects Kalonzo as an elder brother and will not fight back publicly. The deputy president warned he might respond if Kalonzo continues his negative comments. Kindiki explained that respect must work both ways between political leaders. He said the government will keep delivering development programs for all Kenyans regardless of politics.

Kalonzo recently said he does not want to work with Kindiki politically. The Wiper leader also claimed the government uses his name to promote economic programs across Ukambani region. Kalonzo demanded that Kindiki apologize to Kenyans for deaths during June 2024 protests. He blamed Kindiki for the violence because he served as Interior Cabinet Secretary at the time. Kalonzo made these statements after President Ruto apologized for government mistakes.

Kindiki had promised to meet with Kalonzo about development plans for their region. The deputy president called Kalonzo his friend and said he never disrespected him before. Kindiki leads government empowerment programs around the country for citizens. He said opposition leaders from Ukambani remain his friends despite political differences. The deputy president expressed hope they could work together on regional development projects.
