Kiunjuri Warns Uhuru Against Extending His Stay in Power
Former Agriculture Cabinet Secretary Mwangi Kiunjuri has warned President Kenyatta against extending his stay in power.
Speaking on Saturday, Kiunjuri vowed to oppose any attempts by the president to cling to power beyond August 2022.
Kiunjuri, who is the leader of The Service Party (TSP), stated that the Constitution allows the president to serve for a maximum of two five-year terms.
“You must leave office for the next president come August 2022. The Constitution is clear and therefore, we won’t allow you to extend your stay in office,” said Kiunjuri.
Kiunjuri said they will soon move to the Supreme Court to seek an advisory on whether the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) “can be a good excuse to extend the life of this government.”
At the same time, Kiunjuri accused President Kenyatta’s administration of misplaced priorities such as the BBI and construction of the expressway yet Kenyans are starving.
Kiunjuri has been a fierce critic of President Kenyatta since he was fired from Cabinet in January last year.
Following his dismissal, he accused Kenyatta of deceiving and dumping him after convincing him not to vie for the Laikipia governor seat in 2017.
“I was ready to rejoin politics and vie for the governor seat in Laikipia County in the 2017 general elections. I was told not to vie for the position.”
“Out of the request by the president, I willingly obliged. Under very unclear circumstances I am now out of the cabinet and must wait for years for another election to happen. I am now jobless and the status will remain for the next two years. No one would like to be in my current state,” said Kiunjuri.

Yes let him stop this tyrannical leader we are in multiparty democracy or we need to hit the streets a second time. UHURU is the worst he also eliminated upcoming kikuyu leaders so no inheritance shame on you.
Remember Uhuru is a president for all Kenyans! You are just pontificating here like a little whore not realizing that Kenyans also have a role to play in nation building! You can talk about Uhuru this Uhuru that but let me ask you mr dummy! What have you done fir your country before you start diarrhearing about what Uhuru did not do for your ass? All you did was to spread more kaswende to other Kenyan @kaswende!
It is not Uhuru job to feed lazy wheelbarrow thieves let by Ruto! I hate it when Kenyans go up in arms about Uhuru while they have all abdicated their civic duties to do their part!
I hear Ruto talking crap about a broke government while he is part and parcel of the same government! This foolish DP ought to shut his silly mouth and take the due responsibility for everything wrong about Kenya!
If all negroes act like Ethiopia eye for an eye , all would settle at the end of day
I agree with you Comrade Rotten.
This is all the reasons Kenyans are starving because of the starving politicians like this nugu!
Kenyans are starving because this made Kiunjuri stole everything in the ministry of agriculture and left it bunkrupt, just like Ruto himself did.
You just feel like you want to vomit when ugly folks like this fool Kiunjuri speaks! His name does not help one bit either!
Bwana Kiunjuri, I fully agree with you, but you lost me, there, at the end. Do you really need to be on the government teat to earn a living? Is this the only way you can avoid being ‘jobless’? Enda ulime bwana. If you really have self worth, stop relying on the government for your daily bread, unless all you’re after is using the position for “elicit” purposes.
Wing in the government allows Kiunjuri and others to steal from the ordinary people! He misses the opportunity to steal since Uhuru fired his ass! Of course Uhuru knew Kiunjuri would have been a useless governor so he pulled him where he consuls manage him! But Kiunjuri was a huge failure in the ministry of agriculture! These thieves have no place to be leaders of our country!
The fellow has made it clear that,he was in government to serve himself and not those who put him there.So arrogant.How sure was he that he would win the Laikipia governorship ?He makes it sound like its there for him to take.People now know,and to some you have confirmed your intentions .It would be amiracle if you get elected for any civil service office.
Kiunjuri is just talking baloney! Just look at this fool who just looks a a very stupid man talking about being a governor! What is wrong with this muthafaka @kiunjuri????
Kenya is in being trouble if Kiunjuri is the man to look up to for leadership! He just wants to get a piece of the pie and cares less about the people of Laikipia! Any fool hanging around DP Ruto is deeply cursed!
This monkey Kiunjuri is the dummiest rock of all rocks! It is a curse for anyone to even mention his ugly name! Kenya I seriously doomed to have guy like this one talking for certain groups of Kenyans. A thief that need to be jailed!
Basically Kiunjuri is very bitter because Uhuru stopped him from stealing! This man was a totally useless minister and he couldn’t even figure things out when Uhuru chewed him up in public asking him to get his acts together or get fired! We do not need Kiunjuri to tell us how long Uhuru should stay in power!
Is Kiunjuri the only kind of leader left to take Kenya forward? The man won’t even have been elected a governor. Kenya kuna shinda ya leadership if Kiunjuri is considered a leader of anything by the people of laikipia!
REVOLUTION will be key folks.
This time, BY THE BULLET.
REVOLUTION IS NEEDED TO SAVEKENYA! Take Uluru and Ruto’s illgained wealth!!
