That is his style and we wish him well, and that is why it was not tenable for him to remain in office,&#8221; Kindiki said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kindiki, who spoke on Friday while hosting 1,500 residents from Embu County, emphasized that his role is to support President William Ruto in uniting the country and advancing the government\u2019s transformative agenda. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike his predecessor, Kindiki committed to ensuring that the country\u2019s development agenda, particularly in infrastructure, youth empowerment, and economic growth, is prioritized over political ambitions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI have decided that my work is to help the President unite our country, bring development to every part of our country, and change the economic fortunes of all Kenyans through successful implementation of all the economic value chains,\u201d said the Deputy President.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/news\/files\/2025\/01\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-01-17-at-13.06.35-scaled.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/news\/files\/2025\/01\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-01-17-at-13.06.35-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-764210\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/news\/files\/2025\/01\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-01-17-at-13.06.35-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/news\/files\/2025\/01\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-01-17-at-13.06.35-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/news\/files\/2025\/01\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-01-17-at-13.06.35-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/news\/files\/2025\/01\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-01-17-at-13.06.35-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/news\/files\/2025\/01\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-01-17-at-13.06.35-2048x1366.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Locals in Embu listening to Deputy President Kithure Kindiki on January 17, 2025. \/DPPS.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>He assured the public that no part of the country would be left behind, and pledged to focus on delivering tangible results that will improve the lives of Kenyans. \u201cWe will go far and wide to ensure that the Kenya Kwanza administration\u2019s transformative agenda is successful,\u201d he added, noting that his focus would remain on the completion of development projects and the initiation of new ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In distancing himself from early political campaigns, Kindiki said it would be \u201cpolitical irresponsibility\u201d to engage in political discussions when there are critical issues that need attention. &#8220;When the time to politick comes, we will put on befitting attire and get out for serious campaigns,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kindiki also stressed the importance of local communities\u2019 input in identifying development priorities, encouraging the residents of Embu and other counties to engage actively in monitoring projects.
