President Uhuru Kenyatta has now said that he is ready to work with the official opposition coalition but under one condition, if they stop insults and engage in issue oriented ideas.
Politicians aligned to the Coalition for Reforms and Democracy and Jubilee coalition have been engaging in a war of words that the president feels is not necessary.
Speaking in Bungoma county on Saturday, November 14, 2015 Uhuru sked CORD politicians to come on board and have a dialogue with the government.
“Mimi sikuangi na shida kuongea na watu, lakini kuongea sio matusi. Criticism is good uniambie hapa umekosea rekebisha hivi lakini matusi hapana. (I have no problem with dialogue, but I don’t have time for insults. Criticism is good; correct me when I’m wrong but no insults.)” Uhuru as quoted by Citizen TV.
During the Western Kenya and the North Rift region tour, Uhuru commissioned several projects including; the Lwakhakha border post and the Lwakhakha-Sirisia road, water projects in Sirisia and later on he awarded a service charter to Kibabii University to become a fully-fledged institution of higher learning.

In Kenya, the issue of politicians turning out to be personal is not a new thing. On Saturday, October 30, 2015 a video about Kiambu Governor William Kabogo attacking Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) leader Raila Odinga emerged and now Kenyans have shared their opinion.
Kabogo was speaking on Sunday, October 25, at Thika stadium, he attacked Raila and Johnstone Muthama for their frequent attack on President Uhuru Kenyatta.
In a his address to Raila, Kabogo stated that he will deal with Raila unless he stops attacking Uhuru.
“You journalists, tell Raila Odinga to stop his stupidity…if they want to sue me I am ready and I have money to defend myself. And I keep telling you that the foreskin is not good because it makes the brain not to think,” Kabogo said.
In October, ODM Nairobi branch chairman George Aladwa was on record allegedly saying that should Raila fail to win the 2017 race to State House then Kenyans should be prepared.
Earlier on, Gatundu South Member of Parliament Moses Kuria was caught on camera calling for youth from his constituency to slash anyone opposing the NYS projects after politicians from the opposition were attacking Jubilee government on corruption scandals.
