Kembi Gitura has resigned from the KU Teaching Referral and Research Hospital board, saying that he does not support President William Ruto’s administration and does not want to mislead Kenyans.
Speaking on Tuesday, Gitura noted that the decision was political and that he has never been in support of President William Ruto’s party and policies.
He continued by saying that following his appointment to the board on 20th December 2024, he has been unable to criticize the government freely, especially on matters of corruption.
“When I accepted this role, many of my friends and political supporters questioned whether I had shifted my allegiance to UDA. I explained that this was not a political appointment, but optics matter. People still linked me to the government.
For the record, I do not support UDA government policies on virtually all fronts. I do not want to mislead anyone by my actions, words, or deeds. In 2027, every vote will count, and I want my political stand to be clear,” he said
