Moses Wetangula has advised political party leaders around the country not to harass or intimidate elected leaders who can work with the government or the opposition.
The speaker, who spoke on Sunday at St. Mary's Uriri Catholic Church in Migori County, said it was wrong for the opposition to harass elected leaders who have chosen to cooperate with the Kenya Kwanza government for the sake of progress.
He emphasized the need for Kenyan political leaders to uphold democracy within their political parties. Wetangula urged elected officials not to be intimidated or fearful, reminding them of their promise to serve the people truly.

"You cannot preach democracy to the masses while practising oppression within your own political parties." "Democracy must be maintained everywhere," he stated.
"Where I come from, it is believed that if one does not eat cow's meat, he cannot drink cow's meat soup." You can't preach water and drink whisky at the same time."
Wetang'ula emphasized the importance of conversation and collaboration among leaders from all political parties and areas.
He criticized "draconian behaviour" within the political party leadership, emphasizing that such practices impede real progress for the voters.
He advised Nyanza leaders not to be afraid of cooperating with the administration, saying they were elected to represent their voters without fear.
Wetangula, for example, discussed his political path, stating how he faced difficulties when he led the minority in the Senate and was driven out.
However, he said these hurdles catapulted him to his current position as Speaker of the National Assembly.
Wetangula asked politicians to set aside their disagreements for the country's and its people's sake.
He praised President William Ruto's administration for reducing the cost of living and urged unity to support these programs.
