Kuria to Mt Kenya: Our Fights Invited Opposition Into Government
Former Public Service Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria now says that the fights between leaders of the Mt Kenya region are what invited the Opposition into government.
Speaking in Githunguri, Kuria said that leaders started fights they did not know how to finish.
He warned against starting such fights, calling on the leaders of the region to be people who strategize to win.
“Mtu usianze vita kama hujui hio vita vile utaishinda na vile utaimaliza. Tuwe watu wa kufanya hesabu ya kushinda. Hata hawa watu wamekuja wa upinzani sababu tulianza vita hatujui jinsi tutamaliza. Ni sisi tumewaalika,” he said during the funeral of two relatives of Kiambu Senator Karungo Thangwa.
This loosely translates to, “Don’t start a fight if you don’t know how you will win it and how you will end it. Let’s be the people who strategize to win. Even those people have come from the opposition because we started the fight and we don’t know how we will end it. We have invited them.”

The former CS correlated the situation to that of a friend they would go to a bar with and after a few drinks he would provoke revelers to think he could fight, but they ended up being beaten and thrown out of the bar.
Kuria insisted that before the leaders call for their unity, they should start with the unity of the people of Mt Kenya.
He said the unity call has his full support but must start with the stalled projects that were started by retired President Uhuru Kenyatta.
The former CS also said they must unite the people before they move the leaders.
“We are talking about the unity of Mt Kenya and I agree with it. Let’s unite to defend our projects that have stalled. Let’s start with the unity of these citizens before making a unity of leaders, on who is big and who is small. Let’s make a unity to say that our road projects are stuck and construction should continue.”
Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, and a host of Mt Kenya MPs including Gathoni Wamuchomba (Githunguri), James Gakuya (Embakasi North), Njuguna Kawanjiku (Kiambaa), and Senator John Methu (Nyandarua), among others, were present.
