Catholic bishops asks gov’t to stop rhetoric associated with campaigns

The Kenya Conference of Catholic Bishops has called on the government to quit engaging in political rhetoric associated with campaigns and instead focus on service delivery. Speaking in Mombasa, the religious leaders decried the high cost of living which they said has made life unbearable for Kenyans while leaders still battle on political grounds. Th leaders also called on the government to declare the ongoing drought a national disaster. And as Laura Otieno reports, the opposition was called to step up on its oversight role to keep the government in check.
