Muthama to Ruto: Take charge of your governance, ignore talks

Parliamentary Service Commissioner Johnson Muthama has opined that there is no need for bipartisan talks.

Through his Twitter account, he urged President William Ruto to take charge of his administration and focus on delivering his mandate for the people.

"Dear President William Ruto take charge of your administration and work for Kenyans. There is no need for the talks with the Azimio leadership," Muthama said. 

He said those who want to engage in the talks should simply wait for the next general elections where they can vie to be voted into leadership positions. 

"Those who want to engage in talks, should wait for another election and go to the electorates. Raila Odinga, you'll never be President and by the way, in all fairness, you should be treated like Donald Trump," Muthama tweeted. 

Muthama said once the elections are done, people should learn to accept the results and move forward. 

He said it is not right for the Azimio Chief to lead Kenyans in anti-government protests even if he disagrees with the presidential results from last year's elections. 

The bi-partisan talks to end the impasse between the government and the opposition commenced on August 9. 

The talks came following a spate of protests that have led to loss of lives and injuries to innocent Kenyans. 

The Azimio team, being led by Kalonzo has Opiyo Wandayi (deputy delegation leader), Amina Mnyazi, Eugene Wamalwa and Okong’o Mogeni as its members. 

While the Kenya Kwanza faction on the other hand is being led by Ichung'wah with its members being  Cecily Mbarire (deputy delegation leader), Aaron Cheruiyot, Omar Hassan Omar and Catherine Wambilianga.
