Friday, August 9, 2024 - President William Ruto has stated that his broad-based government with opposition leader, Raila Odinga, will help the country unlock its full potential.
Speaking during the swearing-in
of 19 approved Cabinet Secretaries on Thursday, Ruto said Kenya has always been
held back by political rivalry.
He added that there comes a time when the interests of the country outweigh those of a political party.
The President said this is the
reason he reached out to leaders from the Opposition party to join his
administration.
Ruto said that he plans to use
the knowledge and expertise of these leaders to move the country forward.
"The formation of this
broad-based government that brings together former political rivals into one
selfless patriotic team, will unlock the potential of our country that has long
been denied us by factional and sectarian competition.
"While competition is good, there is a moment when the interest of the nation is greater than the interest of a political formation.
"It is the reason I have reached out across the aisle
to bring onboard the knowledge, expertise, and experience of deserving Kenyans
though belonging to a different political formation," Ruto said.
