We will not be distracted by naysayers. Our focus is on delivering what we promised,\u201d said Sakaja.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have a mandate, and we don\u2019t have time for rumors. Our priority is to work for our people, not to engage in gossip,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>He also denied reports that he had been removed from President William Ruto\u2019s jet to China, clarifying that he was occupied with project launches and was not scheduled to travel.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhich plane are people talking about? I was scheduled to be in Umoja today, not in China. Those are just rumors,\u201d Sakaja stated.<\/p>\n<p>The Governor commended the ongoing cooperation between President Ruto and Raila Odinga, noting that his administration has operated successfully despite having a minority in the county assembly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMany were skeptical about my decision to work with the opposition, but now it\u2019s clear that we have a national government of inclusivity that will deliver.
