My government will add 6.5 million more high-quality employment over the next five years, particularly for young people "President Kenyatta made this statement during a live online discussion in which he also took questions from Kenyans.

Uhuru declared he would accept the people's verdict in response to allegations made by National Super Alliance (NASA) presidential candidate Raila Odinga that Jubilee was plotting to retain power.
Uhuru said, "I would do everything in my ability to enable a smooth transition if the will of the people is that another should be given the opportunity to continue."
