Vice President Kalonzo Musyoka was today among thousands of people who attended the 7th memorial service of the late veteran politician Mulu Mutisya.
Mr. Musyoka said the late Mutisya was an honest, principled and dedicated nationalist who advocated for national unity and peace.
Noting that the departed leader embraced dialogue in ensuring amicable resolution of conflicts, the Vice President urged Kenyans to emulate that virtue as a way of honoring Mutisya.
Speaking at the late Mutisya’s home in mwala district, Mr. Musyoka said it is time Kenyans embrace national healing and reconciliation if we have to forge ahead as people of one nation.
Earlier, while addressing a mammoth crowd which gathered in Machakos town to welcome him on his way to Mwala, the Vice President said the passage of a new constitution has created a moment of hope for Kenyans as the country is well placed to deal with the 2008 post election violence.
Mr. Musyoka said Kenya has written to ICC requesting for the deferral of its cases at the ICC, saying the country was able to solve such cases.
The Vice President also stopped at Muthetheni Girls Secondary school where he urged students to take their education seriously if the many challenges facing the area have to be solved.
He said it is only through education that the much needed development in the country can be realized.
Mr. Musyoka also presented wheelchairs for the disabled people in the area.
