Saturday February 2, 2013 - Narc Kenya Presidential hopeful Martha Karua has urged Jubilee Presidential candidate Uhuru Kenyatta and his deputy William Ruto, to first clear their cases at the International Criminal Court (ICC) before they run for the Presidency in Kenya.
Speaking at Makutano Stadium in West Pokot during the home coming of her running mate Augustine Lotodo, Karua said it was hypocritical of them to expect the country to be left with a power vacuum when they were away.
“They should first think of clearing their names at the ICC because they cannot expect to run this country like a shop so that when they leave to face their cases all businesses come to a standstill.” Karua said.
Karua , who is also the former Gichugu MP, casted doubts on Jubilee’s presidential bid wondering how its captain and deputy would run the country, if elected, when they were expected to spend time at The Hague defending themselves.
The former Gichugu MP also hit at CORD Presidential flagbearer Prime Minster Raila Odinga, saying he cannot be trusted to transform the country as he claims in his campaigns, when he had done nothing to wipe out mass corruption in the government yet he holds an influential position.
She urged Kenyans to support her Presidential bid, saying she will eliminate poverty and curb corruption in government offices.
