CS Kuria in retaliation to Azimio demonstrations reveals plans to hold protests outside Uhuru Kenyatta’s home.
Ruto’s allies in the Mount Kenya region, led by Trade Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria, have revealed plans to hold a protest outside retired President Uhuru Kenyatta’s home in Kiambu.
This, according to them, is a protest against the former head of state’s recent political incursions amid a struggle for leadership of the Jubilee Party.
“It might be as soon as the coming week. We will hold that meeting not anywhere else but outside the Kenyatta family homestead in Ichaweri village in Gatundu South, Kiambu,” said Trade CS Moses Kuria.
He also hurled a slew of abuses at the former Head of State that the Nation cannot publish.
Speaking at Thika stadium during the 25th music anniversary of crooner Muigai wa Njoroge while hurling insults against Mr. Kenyatta, the CS said “Uhuru must get used to the fact that we are the ones in power, not him”.
Others who attended the event, including Kiambu governor Kimani Wamatangi, Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro, Thika town MP Alice Ng’ang’a, Senator Karungo Thang’wa, and Kiambu Women Rep Anne wa Muratha, supported the anti-Kenyatta rhetoric.
Moses Kuria has accused the retired President of being behind Azimio leader Raila Odinga’s protests, and alleges that he wants to destabilize President Ruto’s government by “sponsoring opposition-driven upheavals”.

“There are those who are known for fighting investments through public protests and this time round they will have it rough,” CS Kuria claimed.
He said he cannot be shuttling around the globe in search of investors “while others are known for their seasonal turmoil in the political scene scheme on how to sabotage our efforts”.
He said: “That is what we will be calling him out for in that rally outside his compound.”
Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, who was the chief guest at the event also hit out at Mr. Kenyatta and former Interior PS Mr Karanja Kibicho, while also re-asserting himself as the regional kingpin.
He also said he will continue addressing Mount Kenya residents in his mother tongue.
“I am a Múgíkúyú and there is nothing you can do about it. I was brought up in this region being fed chewed bananas straight from my mother’s mouth. If speaking in the Gikuyu language will take away this Deputy President’s seat, so be it,” he said.
“That is the language that we will be using to address our people. This is our government we own 47 percent shares in. This is a Mt Kenya government,” he added, saying he has no apologies to make for dishing out jobs to people from the region.
