Published on December 9, 2019, Moses Kuria, a vocal MP from Mt Kenya, has sparked controversy with his recent remarks on the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) report.
Speaking at a fundraiser in Tharaka Nithi County, Kuria accused Raila of causing chaos after every election because he refuses to accept poll results.
‘We are telling the President that the only way to guarantee that there is going to be peace in this country after every election is that you go home with Raila in 2022!” Kuria said in the presence of Deputy President William Ruto.
He claimed that Kenyans do not need a referendum or the BBI report to tell Raila to accept election results, adding that the referendum is very costly and the money can be used to help dairy farmers.
Kuria also accused Raila of trying to use the referendum to sneak some changes into the report, claiming the ODM leader wants the creation of the post of a powerful Prime Minister and a three-tier government.
He further stated that Raila is very old and should leave the country for young men like him (Moses Kuria).
