Wednesday, February
04, 2026 - Deputy President Kithure Kindiki has launched a scathing attack against
former Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i, accusing him of hypocrisy and
misplaced criticism of the Kenya Kwanza administration.
Speaking during the United Democratic Alliance (UDA)
aspirants’ forum at State House, Nairobi, on January 4th, Kindiki
dismissed Matiang’i’s remarks on Government programmes, particularly in the
education sector.
He argued that President William Ruto’s administration is
working to repair what he termed as “a mess” left behind by the previous
regime.
“I want to tell those talking about education, I want to
repeat the point the party leader said recently: we are trying to sort out the
mess you created in the education section.”
“We shall put up a billboard saying… ‘Men at work. Don’t
disturb us’ we are fixing the problems that you left in the education sector,”
Kindiki declared.
The Deputy President claimed that challenges with the
Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC), teacher shortages, and inadequate classrooms
originated during Matiang’i’s tenure as Education CS.
He questioned Matiang’i’s legacy, suggesting that the only
notable record was the controversial sale of Ruaraka land.
Kindiki further warned that the Government will expose
Matiang’i if he continued to criticise Kenya Kwanza programmes.
“The only track record when they were in office is selling
land belonging to a school at Ruaraka.”
“We know who sold the land; they should leave us alone. We
shall shame them,” he declared.
