Former Vice President Moody Awori has appealed to opposition leaders to support the President William Ruto government to deliver on its pledges after the 2022 election.
Awori urged all political leaders both in the ruling Kenya Kwanza and opposition Azimio La Umoja coalitions to end the side shows and support the government to deliver to Kenyans.
He was speaking when he hosted Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi at his Nairobi home in his first public appearance weeks after rumours emerges about his alleged demise.
Mudavadi and Awori discussed the current political and economic situation in the country and across the world amid countrywide organized protests by the opposition.
“One thing we emphasized on is that Kenya Kwanza won the elections on its manifesto and the manifesto emphasized the interest of the ordinary mwananchi. I am delighted to see that that is where the direction is going. And the direction is going because we need unity,” Awori said.

He also challenged the Ruto administration to fully implement its manifesto and follow the constitution for the country to move in the right direction.
“Side shows, we want to leave them, elections are gone, Kenya Kwanza is in place. Let it follow its manifesto, let us always root together. Let us always ensure that the constitution is respected and all will be well,” the former Vice President added.
Mudavadi lauded Awori for hosting him to discuss varied matter of national interest including how to unite the country after the divisive August 9, 2022 presidential election.
“I am so delighted that I have gained a lot of insight from his perspective on what we should do and what we should focus on as a country moving forward,” said Mudavadi.
The Prime Cabinet Secretary appealed to political leaders across the divide to preach peace and unity for the country to be able to develop her economy for the benefit of all Kenyans.
The two leaders agreed that the Ruto government needed to focus on delivering on its campaign pledges made to Kenyans for the country to be able to recover economically.
“In our talks Mzee has emphasized a lot on the need to be united and the need to remain focused on ensuring that what we campaigned for as we presented our Kenya Kwanza manifesto, like of uplifting the lives of mama mboga, must remain to be the main focus of our operations,” he concluded.
Awori also intimated that the for politicking had ended and all political leaders should now shift their energies to finding solutions to the myriads of challenges facing Kenyans.
