” I remain alive to the fact that I must continue to play a part in fostering peace in my own country of Kenya”, he said.
” I use my voice and platform to persuade, especially those in power, that dialogue with those in opposition to their victory is not a weakness nor is it a denial of their victory but rather a much-needed tool for creating a more inclusive Kenya that sets a forward development trajectory”, he added.
His statement comes off days after Azimio la Umoja one Kenya Coalition’s leaders pulled out of bipartisan talks saying Ruto’s Kenya Kwanza camp isn’t ready to meet demands raised by former prime minister Raila Odinga.
