Joho had appealed to leaders across the country to support President Uhuru Kenyatta and his government’s efforts against corruption by ensuring that all civil servants have undergone a lifestyle audit without politicking the directive.
“People should undergo lifestyle audit, you own an aeroplane, how did you acquire it period, there is no person who cannot account for his wealth and if the property belongs to mwananchi it should go back to mwananchi,” Joho had said two weeks ago in Samburu.
The Mombasa governor revealed that he had met the former president Daniel Moi and held lengthy talks.
“After meeting Mzee Moi, I decided that Kenya is a country where leaders should work selflessly for the people”
Joho said that he would rally over ten governors who are serving their second and final term to ensure that they are counted in his campaign to unite and serve Kenyans.
The governors tours which has been dubbed ‘Joho on the move’ has vowed to push lifestyle audit to be done to every public servant.
“We want to restore the people’s confidence in leaders and lifestyle audit should be carried out, anything which was acquired illegally should be returned.” Joho said.
This is said to have angered politicians aligned to the deputy president.
Duale asked Samburus to choose wisely on who to support, listen to and vote for in 2022.
"Between a person who steals land and who gives your child drugs, who is worse," Duale pondered.
He said that the Mombasa governor should respect the deputy president as he was 39 per cent ahead of all the 2022 presidential contestants.
He added that the handshake between President Uhuru and Raila Odinga had nothing to do with politics and the road map of Jubilee's 2022 plans.
"Jubilee is and will not play a betting kind of politics, the road map is clear that after Uhuru, Ruto should be the president," he said.
