Uhuru Speaks Of ‘Traitors’ In Gov’t, Says Their Days Are Numbered
Former President Uhuru Kenyatta on Saturday spoke of traitors during the Episcopal ordination of Auxiliary Bishops Simon Peter Kamomoe and Wallace Nganga, warning religious leaders gathered of traitors who he did not name and who he said would not benefit from their ways.
The former president did not name or signal who he meant.
“Mambo inaendelea kua ngumu na saa ingine mtu hupotea, na akipotea anatafuta pastor….We have taken leadership to think it means lording over everyone else, it is not,” he said.
“Tumeskia mambo ya wasaliti. Usaliti ni mwingi sana; lakini kwa wasaliti tunawaambia hata Judas alisaliti Yesu lakini hizo hela pesa aliziwacha na akaenda akatafuta kamba akajinyonga.”
The former President noted that the church plays a critical role in ensuring that justice is served for all.
He also expressed that many Kenyans depend on the church to guide them during the difficult moments that are currently being faced.
On the other hand, Uhuru called on Kenyans to maintain peace and pray for the nation and the church leaders.

“They say that the church is the conscience of the society. We must always ask ourselves, especially the leadership, whether we are still faithful to that calling. Are we still conscious of society or have we forgotten that role?
“I pray that God will continue blessing our country and our fellow citizens. Let us continue loving each other and may the church ensure that they take up their role of ensuring that they defend the rights of the people of Kenya,” he stated.
Further, the former Head of State urged leaders, currently serving in various positions, to collaborate with the church in finding solutions for problems that are facing Kenyans.
This was the first time the President appeared publicly after months of hiatus from public activities.
The former President was last seen in public in February during the burial of retired Senior Assistant Inspector General of Police Zachary Mwangi King’ori.
Notably, during today’s event, Uhuru was accompanied by his mother, Mama Ngina Kenyatta, and his brother, Muhoho Kenyatta.
Also present at the event were National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetangula, Public Service CS Moses Kuria, and Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja.
