What Uhuru Kenyatta said

Written from the verified transcript and checked against it. Every figure links to the moment it was said.

Former President Uhuru Kenyatta addressed Jubilee Party delegates in Kiambu, focusing on party unity and leadership transition. He said the party faced legal challenges for two to three years over internal elections, which delayed his plan to hand over leadership. He confirmed Dr. Matiangi as deputy leader and secretary general, and emphasized grassroots mobilization and registration for party elections. Kenyatta stressed the party is national, not regional, and called for leaders to serve all Kenyans equally. He condemned divisive politics, warning that such rhetoric led to the 2007 post-election violence, and appealed to government and security leaders to stop incitement. He urged members to focus on policies addressing economic hardships, citing a worker earning 20,000 shillings monthly with high transport and rent costs. He advised youth to seek leadership through action, not popularity, and refused to respond to political attacks.
