President Uhuru Kenyatta took on political leaders for being corrupt, tribal and selfish, and failing Kenyans by not advancing the ideals that the late Charles Rubia and other multi-party crusaders stood for.

Speaking yesterday at Gituura Primary School in Kandara, Murang’a County, Mr Kenyatta questioned why leaders spend more time on trivial matters instead of serving the public.
