President William Ruto has said he has no problem with the Opposition but opposed how they agitate for issues.
Ruto said the opposition plays an integral role in checking the government's excesses adding that they have a Constitutional mandate to do.
He, however, said it was wrong of the leaders to misuse youth in sparking chaos in the streets instead of doing peaceful protests as enshrined in the law.
"That is where we differ with them, but as long as they carry out their constitutional duty, I have no problem with it," Ruto said.
The President spoke on Sunday after attending an Inter-denominational church service at Nyanturago in Nyaribari Chache, Kisii.
Other leaders who attended the meeting included Education CS Ezekiel Machogu, Minority leader Kimani Ichung'wah, host MP Zaheer Jhanda, and former Kisii Governor James Ongwae, among others.
Ruto urged Raila Odinga to respect the voter's decision and move on.
"Leadership comes from God, am equally ready to work with all of you to push the development agenda forward," Ruto said.
The voter, he said, was decisive on who their leaders are.
The Head of State further asked the clergy to constantly pray for the country's leadership for God's wisdom.
On the economy, Ruto said the answer to economic growth lies within.
He said there are comprehensive plans to finish stalled road projects in Kisii and other parts of the country.
He also urged the local leaders to allow the decommissioning of Suneka airstrip to allow a different project at the site.
Ruto instructed leaders from the region and Narok county to agree on the feasibility of an airport in Nyangusu to invigorate economic activities in the region.
The President also said education remains a priority area with increased allocations.
"It is in education that we are shaping tomorrow's leaders and would continue to receive more funding," he said.
"The bursary model for university students will be phased out for scholarships."
MP Zaheer Chanda requested funding for the construction of the KMTC campus at Ibeno which has remained stalled for a year now.
He also requested more financial allocations towards piping water from Kegati Water Station to the residents.
He also requested more subsidized fertilizer to help with farming among the residents.
Many roads, he said, were still in pathetic shape and needed urgent repair.
