Isaiah Kindiki, brother to incoming Deputy President Kithure Kindiki has broken his silence even as he is expected to take oath of office on Friday.
According to Isaiah, Kindiki’s pick to be the third Deputy President is the work of God through the people of Kenya.
He went on to thank Kenyans for giving Kindiki a chance to serve them through various capacities from the senate to the Cabinet.
“Thank you for giving my brother an opportunity to serve the country through various positions. He has served as Senator of Tharaka Nithi, Senate Majority leader, deputy speaker, served as Cabinet Secretary for some time and now he has been nominated for DP and we don’t take it as just being smart. It’s by the grace of God through the people of Kenya,” Isaiah said.
The professor of Soil Science appreciated President William Ruto for choosing his brother out of over 50 million Kenyans to be his principal assistant.
He added that settling on Kindiki is also a good statement to the minority and maginalised groups that they also have a chance to lead the nation.
“The second thing is to thank President William Ruto, he had a choice from a population of 50 million and to settle on Kindiki is a very humbling experience.
“The choice of Kindiki is a good statement from the Head of State that even people from small constituencies can lead this country. It speaks volumes and a lot of to the maginalised societies, women, youth. I also see it as an endorsement to the academicians of this country, and the education sector,” Isaiah added.
He further noted that Ruto settled on Kindiki because of his obedience and commitment to duty all the time they have worked together.
Isaiah said he believes his younger brother will help President Ruto deliver on his promise to Kenyans.
“His commitment to duty, his faith and belief in God, his trust in family and his people, community, the people and leadership of Kenya, I trust that he will be helping the Head of State to deliver the promises they made and where it is not possible, he will come out and say Kenyans this is not possible.”
