Msambweni — Deputy President William Ruto has said leaders should not use State House to sow seeds of discord.

He said at no point had he thought of overthrowing a Government he played a central role to form.

Dr Ruto challenged leaders to use State House as a symbol of uniting the country.

“It [State House] should not be a field of planting the seeds of hatred that will divide Kenyans,” he noted.

The Deputy President said he had supported President Kenyatta unconditionally when his current friends were against him.

“Even if you do not support my presidential bid, do not use falsehoods against me,” he pleaded.

He said the President knows the truth about the impeachment allegations.

“You know those are lies. You are the leader of all Kenyans, please protect the State House from propaganda.”

Dr Ruto said State House should not be used as a theatre to divide Kenyans along ethnic lines.

He spoke on Monday in Msambweni where he held a public rally and campaigned for Kenya Kwanza.

He was accompanied by Governor Salim Mvurya, Deputy Governor Fatuma Achani, MPs Khatib Mwashetani (Lunga Lunga), Aisha Jumwa (Malindi), Faisal Abdalla (Msambweni), Kassim Tandaza (Matuga) and Benjamin Tayari (Kinango).

Other leaders were Kithure Kindiki (Tharaka Nithi), Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu), UDA Chairman Johnson Muthama and Tana River Senatorial Aspirant Danson Mungatana.
