Mudavadi: Uhuru and Ruto should take responsibility for the 8.4 trillion Kenya owes foreign entities.

.

The Amani National Congress party leader and 2022 presidential aspirant Hon Musalia Mudavadi has for the umpteenth time amplified his message on the high debt index in this nation.

Kenya has accumulated to a tune of 8.4 trillion that has put pressure on ordinary citizens hence making life unbearable.

While addressing a church service during a requiem mass of the late Justus Murunga, Mp Matungu, the Amani leader called it total hypocrisy for some members of the executive who were present even as the country incurred enormous debts that have now become a burden to the nation.

In a thinly veiled attack on the deputy president Dr. William Ruto who has christened himself as a hustler, Mudavadi wondered how the deputy president a senior member of the executive was turning around and moving across the country in the name of hustler movement yet he is part and parcel of the failed regime.

‘’ The people who should tell us how this debt was incurred are President Uhuru and his deputy. If you have made me a hustler because you run the economy badly and now you are coming to me telling me that you want to help solve the problem you helped create. Come on! You are part of the problem not a savior’’ wondered Hon Mudavadi.

Mudavadi further called on the political class to address the elephant in the room rather than going round in circles.

‘’We must be honest and speak openly over these things. The country is bleeding and the skyrocketing debt is causing untold suffering to our people, the government of the day should wake up to the harsh reality and fix things for the betterment of the population’’ added Mudavadi.

Bursting the boil.

In what he called as bursting the boil, Mudavadi called on Kenyans to join hands and expedite the BBI process and shift all the energies in rebuilding the nation.

‘’ BBI was meant to unite and heal the country but at this current moment, it is causing more divisions than the unity it was meant to. It is about time that all Kenyans united and bursted the boil through the referendum by voting yes or no so that we can focus on the economic recovery path of our country’’ said Mudavadi.

The Amani leader led the ANC brigade in endorsing the BBI document and led his party in a countrywide signature collection exercise.

His Ford Kenya counterpart while commenting on the BBI debate said that the debate should now shift on posts BBI rather than delving on the report as it is currently.

‘’ Whether we support BBI or not is not the point here, that is now an academic issue because we have all stated loud and clear that we support. We should focus now on economic recovery and also on where our people shall be post BBI. Will we be on the table or not?”  said Sen Wetangula
