CS Kindiki Should Resign, Civil Servants Demand

Civil Society Groups are calling for the resignation of Cabinet Secretary (CS) Kindiki over perceived failure to quell political violence in Kisii.

The demand comes in the wake of escalating tensions and clashes that have marred the political landscape of the region in recent months.

The groups argue that CS Kindiki, who holds a key position in the government, has fallen short in his responsibilities to maintain peace and security, especially during the heightened political activities leading up to the upcoming elections.

Kisii, known for its dynamic political scene, has witnessed an increase in confrontations between supporters of different political factions, raising concerns about the potential for more severe violence if not promptly addressed.

Speaking on behalf of the coalition of Civil Society Groups, spokesperson highlighted the urgent need for decisive action. “We cannot overlook the alarming rise in political violence within Kisii.

CS Kindiki’s role is crucial in ensuring a peaceful environment for political engagement, and his apparent inability to curb these conflicts raises serious questions about his effectiveness in office,” one civil servant noted.

The call for Kindiki’s resignation is grounded in the belief that a change in leadership is necessary to bring about a more secure and stable political atmosphere in Kisii.

Critics argue that the current administration has failed to implement effective measures to prevent and address political violence, allowing it to fester and escalate.

Despite these assurances, the Civil Society Groups remain adamant in their demand for Kindiki’s resignation, insisting that a change in leadership is imperative to restore peace and stability in Kisii.

They argue that a new approach is needed to address the root causes of political violence and ensure a more inclusive political environment that prioritizes the safety and well-being of the residents.

As the pressure mounts on CS Kindiki, the situation in Kisii remains a focal point of concern. The upcoming weeks are likely to determine whether the government will heed the calls for change and take decisive steps to curb political violence or if the region will continue to grapple with the repercussions of escalating tensions.
