President Kenyatta Speaks on Having First Kenyan Female President

President Kenyatta says he looks forward to having the first female Kenyan president in the near future.

Speaking during a function held at State House in Nairobi, Kenyatta says it would be his joy to watch and listen to a female Kenyan president. 

“I pray to God and look forward to the day that I shall be sitting and listening to the first female President addressing the people of the Republic of Kenya,” he says.

President Uhuru has praised women for their leadership, noting that some of his best Cabinet members are female.

“Some of my best ministers are women. Women understand the basis of servant leadership. Women understand that it is a dedication to the family and the country that matters.”

Kenyatta spoke during an event at State House where First Lady Margaret hosted more than 2,000 Kenyan girl guides to mark this year’s World Thinking Day.

Cabinet Secretaries Amina Mohamed (Education) and Prof. Margaret Kobia (Public Service, Youth, and Gender) were among leaders who attended the function.

“Nobody should put you down because you are girls on the excuse that you have no capacity,” President Kenyatta told the women and girls.

What a moron! The ministers may be the best according to your bottom of the barrel low standards but they are not good enough for Kenya. The jubilee government is full of scandals and lack of planning. You may look forward to a female president but Kenyans can't wait for your last day in office.
Pombe tu!
