Azimio La Umoja One Kenya Coalition Party Leader Dr. Stephen Kalonzo Musyoka has strongly asserted that fear should not be instilled in Kenyans. He made this declaration during a church service at the CFF Kiambu Church in Kiambu Town.
Accompanied by former Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu, Jubilee Party Secretary-General Jeremiah Kioni, DAP-Kenya Party Leader Eugene Wamalwa, Makueni County Senator Dan Maanzo, and Kitui Central MP Makali Mulu, Musyoka emphasized the importance of free expression for all Kenyans.
“Nobody should sell fear to Kenyans. The Constitution of Kenya 2010, promulgated by President Mwai Kibaki, guarantees our freedoms, and these cannot be taken away,” Musyoka stated.
Addressing issues of police brutality and government insensitivity towards Gen Z and Millennial youths, Musyoka expressed dismay over the treatment of young Kenyans, who have faced violence despite being unarmed except for their phones, water bottles, and the Kenyan flag.
Dr. Musyoka also expressed gratitude to Bishop John Michael Wanderi for his powerful sermon, saying it renewed his spirit. He requested prayers for his ailing wife, Mama Pauline Musyoka, and humorously addressed the long-standing nickname of “watermelon,” suggesting that the true “watermelons” of politics are becoming apparent.
He noted the rapid growth of Kiambu Town and shared his vision for a dual carriageway from Muthaiga, Nairobi, to Ndumberi in Kiambu County.
Calling for unity, Musyoka reminded worshippers that during the Olympics, Team Kenya athletes are viewed as one, not by tribe. “The tribe issue has been put to bed forever by Gen Z, and we must thank them,” he said.
Bishop Wanderi, in his sermon, emphasized the power of words, urging the congregation to shape their lives and destinies through their speech.
Eugene Wamalwa praised Musyoka’s tenure as Deputy President under the late Mwai Kibaki, noting their successful efforts in developing Kenya’s economy from negative growth to 7%.
