I've Lost Friends and I'm Ready to Lose More, President Kenyatta Declares
President Uhuru Kenyatta says that the spirited fight against impunity has cost him some of his closest friends in the past few weeks.
Addressing congregation at Faith Evangelistic Ministry church in Karen, Nairobi on Sunday, the President however said this will not stop the ongoing crackdown on illegal buildings. He vowed that not even the rich or politically connected individuals will be spared in the war on impunity.
“Over the last few weeks I have lost so many friends. I have received many calls being asked "how can you sit and just watch all this destruction going on. You must stop it." But i said, it is difficult to stop, not because we love to destroy but because we must fight impunity,” said Kenyatta.
“If we fail to fight impunity we will not achieve our dreams… A time has come for us to fight impunity, a time has come for every Kenyan to realise no matter how powerful you think you are or how much money you have… That will not save you.”
Kenyatta said he's ready to lose all friends if that is what it will take to tame corruption and disregard of the law.
“Let us lose our friends and do what is right in the eyes of God. We shall gain other friends as we move forward. Let us create a society that respects and treasures hard work and integrity, a nation with a conscience,” he said.

Thank you Mr. President, you have the power of the people and that is God's power. You did not take power to create friends but to rule over us with God's guidance. Pray and we will pray for you and do what you believe is right and what is needed to lead the nation. Do not look back and use all the power you have. If you do not use it, you loose it. May God's guidance be with you always. God help Kenya!!!

1. The Friends Uhuru has Lost are those who he himself has Dumped after Using them to RIG the Election in 2013 and 2017.
2. God does NOT Empower people who become leaders by Crook and RIG. God is the God of Justice (and not Electoral Injustices).

Kudos Mr president, don't mind losing friends in the fight against impunity that has overruled for years since independence. I assure you sir you are never alone in this journey, as a matter of fact you are adding more new friends on your radar than never before. I must admit you are my favourite president ever. I challenge to tame your deputy's evil desire for public properties. You will leave a legacy that has never been left by any sitting presidenta in the world.
