DP Kindiki Urges Gen Z to Embrace Dialogue, Pledges to Listen Amid Protests
Mitamboni, Kathiani Constituency, Machakos Deputy President Prof. Kithure Kindiki has appealed to Kenya’s youth—especially the Gen Z movement—to embrace tolerance and dialogue, assuring them that the government is open to listening to their grievances to avoid continued street demonstrations.
Speaking during a women's empowerment program at Mitamboni Market in Kathiani constituency, Prof. Kindiki acknowledged the concerns raised by young people across the country and emphasized the need for peaceful engagement rather than unrest.
"We must never ignore the voices of our youth. As a government, we are ready to listen, engage, and work with them in shaping a better future for our country," Kindiki stated.
He called on Gen Z to consider constructive avenues of expressing dissent, adding that Kenya is built on democratic values where every voice counts.
During the same event, Kangundo MP Hon. Fabian Kyule Muli, who also serves as the party leader of the Grand Dream Development Party (GDDP), urged the Kamba community to rethink its historical alignment with the opposition.
"For years, our people have remained on the sidelines of government, election after election. It's time we break this cycle. Let us move towards the center of national leadership and development," said Muli.
He challenged the region to strategically position itself for meaningful participation in national governance and development agendas, emphasizing unity and forward-looking politics.
