ODM leader Raila Odinga has bashed politicians already campaigning for the 2022 race at the expense of development.
Telling them off Raila on Monday said it is a high time for the legislators to give Kenyans a break.
He reiterated that the famous handshake between him and President Uhuru Kenyatta early in the year is meant to have a government that accommodates all regardless of political and tribal affiliations.
The former Premier termed the current political temperatures as rubbish insisting it will not take Kenya anywhere.
“You cannot keep the country on a campaign mood for five years, please give Kenyans a break and let us forge ahead,” he said.
Raila was speaking in Budalangi during the Bunyala sport cultural festival.
In attendance were Devolution CS Eugene Wamalwa, Former Funyula MP Paul Otuoma and Funyula MP Oundo Mudenyo.
Raila assured he residents that during his tenure as AU special envoy he will initiate Lake Victoria Ring Road and find a lasting solution to the wars between Ugandan and Kenyan fishermen on the lake.
“It is import to respect the East African Member protocol of the three States. Uganda is a member and should live up to the protocol,” Raila said.
He regretted that the neighbouring Uganda has worsened the relationship between the two East African Countries by harassing Kenyan fishermen by forcing them to eat raw fish.
