Senior government leaders have escalated their criticism of retired President Uhuru Kenyatta following his recent calls for opposition unity ahead of the 2027 General Election.
Energy Cabinet Secretary Opiyo Wandayi is the latest top official to fault the former head of state, urging him to step back from active politics and focus on uniting the country rather than antagonizing sitting leaders.
Speaking at Odaso Health Centre in Kanyamwa Kosele Ward, Ndhiwa Constituency, during a women's empowerment programme, Mr Wandayi argued that Mr Kenyatta's recent political remarks are detrimental to the nation.
He maintained that the former president should enjoy his retirement instead of engaging in electioneering.

"You must be content with the fact that this country gave you ten years to lead it. You must be thankful," Mr Wandayi said.
The Cabinet Secretary urged Mr Kenyatta to accord President William Ruto the same respect enjoyed by previous heads of state.
