Former President Uhuru Kenyatta says he is still energized despite retiring from active politics.
Kenyatta, who left office last September after a 10-year reign, reiterated his support for Azimio la Umoja One Kenya coalition party leader Raila Odinga whom he backed in the last presidential election.
He vowed to continue rallying behind Odinga in his quest to unite and liberate all Kenyans.
“I have been the president for nearly 10 years…right now I’m retired, but retired is not tired. Kustaafu sio kuchoka…ata wengine wakistaafu ndio nguvu inaongezeka,” Kenyatta said.
“Even if I am not in active politics, I am still a follower of Raila. When he tells me to go, I must go.”
Kenyatta was speaking in Luanda, Vihiga County, where he addressed residents in the company of Odinga after the two attended the burial of former Education Cabinet Secretary Prof. George Magoha in Siaya County on Saturday.
The fourth president similarly defended his support for the Azimio leader, insisting that he is within his democratic rights to support whoever he deems fit.
“Ndio maana nasema nilimuunga mkono wakati huo na bado nitaendelea kumuunga mkono kwa sababu najua yeye ni mtu wa ukweli ambaye anataka kuunganisha Wakenya na anataka amani katika nchi yetu,” he stated.
“I am within my democratic rights to support the person I want. Hakuna kiti natafuta, lakini Baba akitafuta mimi sina shida, mimi niko hapo.”

But the big tummy is saying otherwise – – TIRED ?!!!
Truth be told Raila may be…
Truth be told Raila may be too old for the presidency in 4 years time.Look at Nigeria’s president most of his term was spent abroad on medical leave.The president of South Sudan literally urinated on himself in public and let us not forget how many times Mugabe was caught sleeping during public meetings.It is time ODM looked beyond Raila .Uhuru needs to go home and retire this thing of generational leadership is a fallacy and his family has stolen enough to cater for his grandkids.
