Former Senior Advisor to President Ruto, Moses Kuria has criticised the broad-based government for relying on outdated political tactics to tackle the challenges facing Kenyans.
Taking to his socials, Kuria argued that the current political system suffers from deep-rooted problems, yet leaders continue to prescribe temporary fixes.
He singled out both the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) and the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) for dragging their feet on implementing the National Dialogue Committee (NADCO) report.

Kuria noted that he initially expected the report to pave the way for a referendum in the 2027 polls, but that prospect now appears unlikely.
He went on to stress that implementing NADCO would be key to addressing the country’s deep-rooted political challenges.
Kuria moreover warned that, much like the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI), the NADCO report risked collapsing unless decisive action is taken.
The former Public Service Cabinet Secretary also faulted the exclusion of other parties within Kenya Kwanza and Azimio during Monday’s joint parliamentary meeting between ODM and UDA at State House.
Kuri’s remarks came hours after the joint parliamentary group meeting at State House, Nairobi, on Monday, August 18.
The meeting, attended by President, Deputy President Kithure Kindiki and former Prime Minister Raila Odinga was expected to foster unity between the two sides.
