Senior State House advisor Moses Kuria hailed former President Uhuru Kenyatta on Tuesday for agreeing to meet and tighten ranks with President William Ruto, revealing big political plans that he will soon implement.
In a personal statement dated December 10, Kuria stated that he was considering returning to the Jubilee Party following the meeting between Ruto and Uhuru, which he described as a success.
According to the former CS, after careful consideration, he has realized his mistake in leaving Jubilee to start his own Chama Cha Kazi (CCK), disclosing that he will persuade Uhuru to be the party’s leader.
Kuria went on to say that his desire to rejoin the party arises from the necessity to unite the Mt Kenya region under a single powerful political party before the country has its upcoming general elections.
“The Mt Kenya region, like all other regions, deserves a strong political voice. It is our imaginable right. For all the good and bad lessons we have learnt, it was a mistake to leave the Jubilee Party. However, it is not too late,” Kuria revealed.
“We will now embark on bringing all the political parties with a footing in the region together under the Jubilee Party,” he added.
“We did it in 2016 when we dissolved parties to form Jubilee. We will do it again. Jubilee under President Kenyatta as the party leader is the way to go. Chama Cha Kazi and I will devote all our energies to that endeavour.”
The President’s advisor urged Uhuru, Raila, and Ruto to work together to restart the stalled Building Bridges Initiative (BBI), which was ruled null and unconstitutional by a court order.
“Firstly, we can no longer depend on handshakes and personal meetings to make us feel safe in our country,” Kuria stated.
“The frequent handshakes and artificial formations have vindicated President Kenyatta and Prime Minister Raila on the BBI initiative. They were right and we were wrong.”
“I urge President Ruto, President Kenyatta, and Prime Minister Odinga to close ranks and lead the nation in picking from where BBI flopped and give this country a Constitution that speaks to the emerging realities of our nation and our society.
BBI Season 2 is urgent and can not wait,” he added.
As a result, Kuria congratulated Ruto and Uhuru for deciding to close ranks and collaborate, even as political doubts remain about what drove the two to meet.
“Closing ranks and forgiving each other is much easier than having to deal with the aftermath of a failed nation-state,” he added.
