President Uhuru Kenyatta has of late been receiving applause due to his relentless efforts towards corruption.
On Friday, Kenyans on Twitter went abuzz congratulating the president for his efforts while others went on to encourage him to keep on the fight.
Through hashtag #KeepFightingMrPresident, Kenyans went on to outline their concerns on what they want the president to consider in the fight against corruption.
President Kenyatta and Central Bank of Kenya Governor Patrick Njoroge on Madaraka Day unveiled the new generation currency notes in denominations from sh200, sh500 and sh1000 whose main agenda is to fight money laundering.
On Wednesday, during Eid Baraza celebrations held at Mombasa’s Treasury Square, Mombasa Governor Hassan Joho told Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiangi and his Tourism counterpart Najib Balala, that President Kenyatta “needs to be praised for his good work.”
“I want to invite the two CSs who are here today. I know they would want to steer off politics, but I just want them to praise the President. Your boss (President Kenyatta) is doing a good job, and we support him. We also together with Raila Odinga,” said Joho.
Uhuru has previously declared war on corruption claiming that he would fight any corrupt person not considering their relationship with them.
“If you are corrupt we will fight you. You can be my brother or my sister or my closest political ally, but if you are corrupt we will fight you.”

When the President said the war on corruption and impunity will be won, he meant it. He has ensured crucial entities are led by people with an intelligence background. #KeepFightingMrPresident pic.twitter.com/PABl7c866F
