Young Parliamentarians Warn Seasoned Politicians Against Tribal Divisions
Young parliamentarians have issued a stern warning to seasoned politicians against perpetuating tribal divisions within the country.
During a church service at Ikombe Catholic Church in Machakos County, attended by Kiharu Member of Parliament Ndindi Nyoro, they emphasized that every Kenyan has the right to reside in any part of the country.
Speaking passionately, Embakasi East Member of Parliament, Babu Owino, expressed his respect for Ndindi Nyoro, highlighting his non-tribal approach to leadership. “Out of all the UDA Members of Parliament, I respect Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro because he unites all Kenyans regardless of their tribal affiliation. You cannot succeed if you are tribal,” Owino emphasized.
Owino further questioned the motive behind seasoned politicians’ resistance to young leaders, stressing the need for mutual respect between generations. “We will respect the old politicians, and they should also respect us since we were also elected. In Central, they are fighting Nyoro, in Nyanza, they are fighting me,” he added.
Echoing the sentiment of unity, Yatta MP Basil Roberts reiterated that the primary goal of young parliamentarians is to unite Kenyans across the country, transcending political divides.
Kitui Women Representative, Irine Kasalu, pledged her support for young politicians, emphasizing their potential to bring about positive change in the country.
Gatundu North MP Elijah Njoroge emphasized the importance of youths traversing the country to foster national unity ahead of the 2032 elections. “Youths should be allowed to move across the country, not on tribal lines, as they prepare to take over the country’s leadership in 2032,” he asserted.
Marakwet West Member of Parliament, Timothy Kipchumba, affirmed that every Kenyan, regardless of tribal affiliation, has the right to reside in any part of the country. He commended National Assembly Budget Chairman Ndindi Nyoro for allocating funds for electrification projects in constituencies.
Kitutu Chache South legislator Anthony Kibagendi applauded Ndindi Nyoro for his transformative leadership and condemned tribal politics. “Nyoro, who is a young leader, has demonstrated transformative leadership. Tribal politics is not the way to go,” he affirmed.
Shinyalu MP Fred Ikona condemned tribalism as a hindrance to progress, emphasizing the youth leaders’ commitment to developing every part of the country. “As youth leaders, we don’t engage in tribal politics. What we want is to ensure that every part of the country is developed,” he declared.
Kiharu Member of Parliament and Chair of the Budget Committee, Ndindi Nyoro, has emphasized the paramount importance of unity transcending tribal affiliations among members of Kenya’s political landscape.
“We stand together as brothers and sisters, transcending divisive tribalism,” he declared.
Nyoro, a member of the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) party and a staunch supporter of both the president and his deputy, emphasized the inclusive spirit within the political sphere.
“As a UDA party MP and supporter of the president and his deputy, we also have staunch supporters of ODM like Babu Owino and Kibagendi, alongside two independent MPs and an ANC MP. We walk as one, united in our vision for Kenya,” Nyoro affirmed
