President Kibaki on Sunday assured Kenyans of his commitment to the National Accord and vowed not to let the recent row over nominations to key posts to block the reform agenda.
In his message marking the third anniversary of the Grand Coalition Government, the President urged Kenyans to remain calm despite the challenges being experienced in the implementation process.
He said: “I want to assure all Kenyans that the challenges we have experienced in the last few weeks should not be cause for worry. I am committed to the successful implementation of the constitution and I urge all stakeholders to join hands so that we can open a new chapter of prosperity for our country.”
In a message to mark the 3rd anniversary of the Grand Coalition Government, President Kibaki said he was confident that successful implementation of the Constitution would open a new chapter of stability and prosperity for the country.
President Kibaki expressed satisfaction at the progress achieved in the implementation of the new constitution, particularly with the formation of various commissions mandated to spearhead the various aspects of the new law.
He affirmed that the letter and spirit of the National Accord has prevailed over the last three years.
Admitting that there are several outstanding challenges, the President reiterated the Government’s determination to address youth unemployment as well as complete resettlement of all genuine internally displaced persons.
The President added, “In particular, I am aware that some Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) are yet to be resettled. The Government has set aside resources for the resettlement of all genuine IDPs and I call upon the relevant Government Departments to expedite the resettlement process.”
