Defence Cabinet Secretary(CS) Aden Duale has revealed that retired President Uhuru Kenyatta is not invited to the launch of his new book set to take place on Thursday.
The launch of the book titled ‘For The Record’ is set to graced by President William Ruto and will be attended by dignitaries, cabinet secretaries, political and business leaders.
While speaking to Citizen TV, Duale said that he did not send Uhuru an invitation card as he fears he (Uhuru) might disrupt his function.
“President Kenyatta, of late, after I saw how he was behaving at the Jubilee offices, I can’t invite him. He can disrupt my function and you know he is my buddy and I cannot remove him forcefully,” Duale quipped.
“Tomorrow I want him to watch my launch from the television. I could have invited him but I’m scared he gets annoyed when he sees Riggy G and Ichung’wa and he disrupts my event,” he added.
The CS however stated that he would deliver a copy of the book to Uhuru, whom he has talked about in the book.
The CS went on to joke that he would also like to donate some sheep to the former president after his were stolen from the Northlands farm in Ruiru.
“I’m a pastoralist and I have got enough sheep in one of my farms, I can donate. When you are a livestock farmer, when an animal gets sick or you lose it, it feels like you lost a child, it’s very sentimental. So I can imagine when Uhuru saw his sheep being taken, he felt it.”
