The DP spoke on Friday when he hosted Tana River leaders and elders at the Official Residence in Karen, Nairobi for consultations on ongoing development activities in the County.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe President has given a firm assurance that no county will be left behind on development,\u201d he affirmed.<\/p>\n

He said President Ruto\u2019s proclamation on the issue is being implemented fully.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo Kenyan child should be denied national documents because of their religion, where they were born, or their community. Every child of Kenyan parents is a Kenyan,\u201d he emphasized.<\/p>\n

He outlined several projects being undertaken by the government in the County top among them infrastructure development, water expansion, electricity connection rallying residents to ensure quicker realisation of the projects by remaining united and peaceful.<\/p>\n

Last Mile Electricity Connectivity projects worth 432 million shillings are currently ongoing across the three Constituencies of Bura, Galole and Garsen to connect an additional 2,700 households.<\/p>\n

\u201cTana River County is sitting well with other counties in terms of development in the country,\u201d DP assured.<\/p>\n

Underscoring the call for unity, he noted that politics should be about competition of ideas, not dividing people along tribal or religious lines.<\/p>\n

He asked the elders to be at the forefront in preaching peace and unity.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou are the pillars of our communities providing guidance and helping preserve peace and morality,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n

The Deputy President also cautioned Kenyans to stop heeding political leaders using clannism and ethnicity to divide citizens with the aim of winning elections.<\/p>\n

He castigated a section of politicians in the country who he said are fuelling ethnicity using their tribe and region they come from saying they are endangering innocent Kenyans living across the country irrespective of the language they speak.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe must have healthy competition devoid of using tribal card, religious differences and wars that cause havoc and deaths,\u201d Prof. Kindiki said.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
