Amber Ray

This time politicians won’t use us. We played our role, let them play their own! I’m for peace than for win! #onepeople

Nick Mutuma

Lets keep the peace and more importantly get back to work.

Wahu

Tusibleed ndio walead! May peace continue to prevail over our beloved motherland. Amen

As we celebrate or mourn the IEBC outcome, let us do so without provoking each other, be it online or offline. Let our own history remind us that there is no winner when we turn against each other. The price of unga is the same for all of us. Rent, school fees, and food are our realities no matter your political inclination & the sooner we get back to our normal businesses the better for all of us.#GodBlessKenya #MayPeacePrevail #letsmovekenyaforward 🕊️🤍

Maturity is required at this moment in time. Those that are celebrating with excitement…please be mindful of the ones that are hurting deeply. This is when magnanimity should be in your heart. Don’t mock. Pastors this is the time to heal the land and not posting scriptures out of context to demonize others. Let’s HEAL and PREACH PEACE. Even the ones who lost are loved by GOD.The President Elect will lead ALL Kenyans and the task is upon him to Speak the Language of healing and reconciliation….May God bless him…TO THOSE DEEPLY HURTING. You did your best by voting for your preferred candidate. It does not mean your are losers. It just means that you also have conviction and showed a Man that you also believed in him. And even in his pain he knows over 6 million showed him love.It’s time to heal the nation. Love one another …You are my brother ..You are my sister.

Here you are! Something to distract you from elections mania! Here I am in a dress! 🤣🤣🤣🚶🏾‍♀️🇰🇪 #ElectionsBilaNoma Avoid sharing election info.

Most is unverifiable and may have an unintended effect on the masses. Lets just focus on this carousel I presented above. Thank you!

Ideologies separate us, Dreams and Anguish bring us together 🇰🇪

Mary Kilobi

Let's just embrace each other whatever the outcome! Your hair dresser, Barber, Boda rider , Conductor, Bus driver, Doctor ,Mechanic, Lecturer, News Anchor, Waiter, teacher etc can not all be from you political affiliation.

At the end of politics which is today we need each other like before! Will you go to the hospital and inquire the nurse's tribe or political affiliation before you are treated when you have a broken arm? Utafanya nini?

Kilobi says people should embrace peace

"How will your hatred for Kilobi or your neighbour improve your life? Don't burn bridges with insults! Wakenya amkeni!

Wewe Penda tu jirani yako. Wachia Siasa wanasiasa you did you best on 9th August! Life must go on. Tusikubali kuwa washieeeeenzi.... kuharibu nchi yetu."
