Political leaders in the country have been urged to be on the forefront in promoting peaceful coexistence among Kenyans.
Speaking during a church service at Lurambi in Kakamega, a section of leaders led by Kakamega Governor Fernandes Barasa called on politicians to desist from dividing the country, with the aim of gaining political mileage and popularity.
The Governor at the same time urged Kenyans to sift messages from politicians and only accept to be led by development focused leaders and dismiss those whose political rhetoric is meant to create division, disagreements and conflict.
He said Kenya does not have a space for leaders who are tribalistic and who thrive in divisive politics.
