President Kenyatta has reiterated that he will retire from politics once his current and final term expires in 2022.
Kenyatta, who spoke on Sunday at African Inland Church (AIC) in Milimani, Nairobi during the coronation of presiding Bishop Abraham Mulwa and his deputy reverend Paul Kirui, said he will not cling to power but will go home to have time with his family.
“No one will be at work all his life, you must spend time with your family at some point. You know even if I don’t attend this family meeting, I will be admonished and told that every time there is such a family meeting, I don’t attend while at the end of my time I will go home and be with them,” Kenyatta said as he pleaded with the congregants to allow him to leave the function early to attend a scheduled family meeting.
He appeared to be responding to a section of leaders who have suggested that he is too young to retire and should take up the Prime Minister position that is proposed in the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) report.
Kenyatta was accompanied to the function by among others, Deputy President William Ruto, Cabinet Secretaries Fred Matiang’i (Interior), Charles Keter (Energy), Prof George Magoha (Education), Simo Chelugui (Labor) and Prof Margaret Kobia (Gender) and host governors and MPs.

In order for our democracy to be on track, be real and meaningful, you must go home after the end of your term. It doesn't matter whether you are going to see family or what not, just go! Moi's handing over power to Kibaki and Kibaki handing over to you must continue with you handing over power to whoever will be the next democratically elected president of Kenya. For the sake of posterity, do the right thing and save our nation from political prostitutes and crooks who only think about themselves with their phony street parades and a BBI that has nothing new to offer our people and country.
Uhuru Kenyatta is scum of the earth , a conman and unrepentant pathological liar.
If you believe him, you’re also part of the problem.
We want secession. We are tired of shameless lies and fake mea culpas.
The only time we had Democracy in Kenya was when Moi handed over to Kibski I 2003. Other years including 2007, 2013, and 2017 were total SHAMS.
Uhuru Kenyatta is a pathological liar, a crimes against humanity criminal, Democracy rapist, extrajudicial killer, genocidal maniac, ethnic cleansing fool, electoral fraudster and looter of public funds a cheap conman.
Only an idiot would believe anything he says.
He has a long well documented history of lying.

You sound like a Devil incarnate making love to the Lucifer!; while all your sisters hallucinate with demonic hullabaloos!!
