Amani National Congress party leader Musalia Mudavadi has said that Uhuru’s government is very corrupt.
Speaking at a fundraiser in Ingotse High school, Mudavadi said the president ought to sack without fear as he is the big boss and can make corruption a thing of the past.
He said that he is not willing to join the Uhuru administration since its very tainted and no one would want to be associated with them.
“If you join the government now, you will be tainted by these dam scandals. I’d rather remain in the opposition and offer constructive criticism’ he said adding that the state spent Sh3bn on Bazada Dam in Marsabit without doing a geological survey — excavators sank into the ground, in another scandal.
He said the government had spent Sh3 billion on the Badaza Dam in Marsabit in yet another scandalous dam project.
“When the earth movers went to the ground to excavate, they started sinking instead of excavating, meaning no geological survey was done. How then did the government then pay Sh3 billion without carrying out the geological survey?” he asked.
The former vice president said that President Uhuru Kenyatta’s State of the Nation Address on Thursday was an anticlimax.
He said the President missed the point by saying that corrupt officials will only be pushed out once they are charged.He said the President should have fired his Cabinet Secretaries who have been “guest” of DPP Noordin Haji and DCI George Kinoti. “What good food does Kinoti and Haji prepare in their offices that your CSs keep going there to eat?” he asked.He said that the corrupt in government will use stolen money to bribe their way to avoid being taken to court.
“I have told the President before and I repeat, there is no better time than today as you have the goodwill of Kenyans. Don’t let this opportunity slip away. Use it to crush corruption,” he said.
The Jubilee administration has been on the record for wrong doing with deputy president being associated with those accused of stealing public money.
Recent;ly the DP wondered why Kenyans have turned the corruption war against him
“Sometimes i wonder why the fight against corruption has been turned against me,let us stop character assassination as it wont help the fight,”he said.
