In an explosive public statement, Kindiki broke his silence and issued a stern warning to Kalonzo, urging him to “desist from public attacks” or risk getting a direct response. The Deputy President, in a measured yet pointed tone, said he has chosen silence out of respect—but won’t hold back forever.
“I’ve seen the remarks. I know he doesn’t want to work with me—and that’s fine. But if these comments continue, I will respond. Respect is mutual,” Kindiki declared on social media.Despite the growing war of words, Kindiki maintained that he still views Kalonzo as his elder brother. However, he made it clear that admiration has its limits.
“I don’t engage in public fights with people I respect. But I will confront him head-on if need be,” he warned.This sharp exchange comes hot on the heels of Kalonzo’s public snub of the Kenya Kwanza administration, where he accused the government of dragging his name into Ukambani development efforts.
Kalonzo had slammed the regime, saying it was “wasting time” trying to court him politically. “They’re using my name to soften the ground in Ukambani,” Kalonzo fired during a recent event.Kindiki, who has been championing empowerment projects across the country, dismissed the claims.
He insisted his mission is purely developmental and has nothing to do with political scheming.In a move many saw as an olive branch, Kindiki revealed that he had plans to reach out to Kalonzo for a sit-down, citing a mandate from local citizens to engage leaders in the region.But Kalonzo wasn’t buying it.
Instead, he took another swipe—this time tying Kindiki to the June 2024 anti-government protests that turned deadly. He demanded an apology from the Deputy President, echoing President William Ruto’s earlier expression of regret.
As tensions escalate, many are wondering if the political bromance between the former allies has completely crumbled—or if there’s still a chance for reconciliation.
For now, all eyes are on Kalonzo. Will he continue the war of words, or will he heed Kindiki’s warning? One thing’s certain—Kenya’s political arena just got a whole lot hotter.
