In a statement via X on Tuesday, July 9, Karua warned politicians against hijacking the reforms initiated by the youth.
“Let us be careful as the political class lest we hijack the genuine clamor for accountability and reforms by the GenZ,” said Karua.
The Azimio la Umoja co-principal noted that dialogue can be meaningful if the participants are guided by the interests of the nation.
“Dialogue can only be meaningful if the players have good faith and are guided by the best interests of the people,” Karua added.
