Elders Association of Kenya urge politicians to embrace unityThe elders have commended President Uhuru's work of uniting Kenyans and fighting the politics of tribalism. "God has answered our prayers through the March 9, 2018 handshake between President Uhuru and the ex-Prime minister Raila Odinga. They have condemned the group of people bashing President Uhuru, saying they are 'messengers of doom and hatred', adding that they should embrace peace and unity. The association called on Kenyans to embrace unity and are asking the government to declare the day of the handshake- 9th of March-a public holiday. This statement follows utterances by the controversial Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria who had emerged as the face of rebellion in President Uhuru Kenyatta's backyard.
