The Senate Majority Leader Aaron Cheruiyot has maintained that there are issues that the Kenya Kwanza team will not compromise on in the bipartisan talks.
Speaking on Sunday during a church service in Sotik in Bomet county, Cheruiyot faulted the Azimio team of doing politics of deceit, saying their push to have the housing levy dropped will not be allowed.
Cheruiyot said the policies put in place by President William Ruto such as the housing levy are meant to revive the country’s economy.
The UDA Senator said the housing levy proposal was captured in both the Kenya Kwanza and Azimio manifestos and wondered why the team wanted it dropped.
“Let me announce to the country from straight here in Bomet, the same way they are telling us that they are deal breakers even us in the issues of housing levy that one is a deal breaker,” Cheruiyot said.
“I will not allow anyone to insist that we must remove the housing levy, the bipartisan talks will collapse and let them go back to the streets because I cannot allow myself to sign on a report that will make thousands of youth miss out on jobs,” he added.
The Senate Majority leader called on Azimio to avoid too much talking and allow the government to implement its policies which seek to revive the country’s economy.
He said that even though the Kenya Kwanza government is ready for constructive advice, it will not take it from people who he alleged are the reason the country is in a bad state.
“We cannot take advise from the same people who got us into the same mess that we are currently in. Some of the people talking are the same who were moving around borrowing funds for BBI, how can you be advising us and you are the one who got us into the mess that we are into today,” Cheruiyot paused.
“Please keep your mouth shut, let us plan the government through the President’s policies to revive the country,” he added.
The bipartisan talks between Ruto and opposition chief Raila Odinga on Thursday hit the first major stalemate as the peace initiative teeters on the brink of collapse.
What was the last stage of report writing for the National Dialogue Committee was cut short as the two sides sharply disagreed on the issue of cost of living.
Azimio led by former Vice President Kalonzo Musyoka declared a stalemate after their Kenya Kwanza counterparts refused to budge on lowering the cost of living.
The parties failing to hit a compromise called off the report writing exercise but agreed to reconvene next Wednesday.
