PRESS RELEASE

WE the Nyanza Council of Church Leaders say that the New Government under President Uhuru Kenyatta should consider and fully support the devolved system of Governance.

We are also saying the new Administration should enable the County Leaders in the 47 Counties across the Country to carry their Constitutional mandate without interferences from any external forces as the new President pledged during his swearing in on Tuesday as the fourth President of Kenya.

We further appeal to the new Administration to embrace Nyanza Region in his Development plan despite its political affiliation because it is also part and parcel of this country.

We pledge that we will support and work with the new Administration since it is the Government of the day.

What is now important in the Country is for the new President and his team to fully help in uniting the Country so that it become one Nation especially after the just concluded intense political campaigns witnessed in the recent past in various parts of the Country.

We urge the new Government to strive to deliver and fulfill its various pledges to Kenyans which the President made when he was campaigning as contained in the Jubilee Coalition manifesto.

The Country now needs the element of Peace and tranquility so as to help it prosper under the new system of Government hence there is need to promote peace in various parts of the country

There is also need to heal and reconcile various communities after those vigorous political campaigns prior to the just concluded General Elections and this therefore calls on the New Government to ensure the Country is united while it takes shape.

Let Kenyans now put their differences aside in terms of politics and embark on building this Nation as a team.

God bless Kenya.
