Mututho claimed that the move would encourage the citizens to participate in electoral processes.
“I
am not a weather man but from the look of things I believe that in the
future you will only benefit from resources such as bursary in your
county if you are a voter in that particular county,” said Mututho.
He
was reacting to low turnout levels experienced countrywide in the
ongoing IEBC mass enlisting of voters to participate in the August
polls.
Addressing
Jubilee Party aspirants at his anti-drug Centre in Nakuru Town, Mututho
said: “a time has come for Kenyans to take elections seriously and vote
in wise leaders who are ready to serve without greed.”
He
appealed to the youth to heed the call and register as voters saying,
“If you don’t register as a voter you will have made a big mistake and
you will contribute to poor leadership in this country.”
The
former anti-narcotics boss lauded the Jubilee Party for unveiling party
members’ smart cards, which he said would ascertain that only party
members will participate in party nominations.
He
urged Jubilee supporters to acquire the cards that are selling at Ksh20
in order to participate in party primaries but quickly warned them of
unscrupulous business people who are out to make money by selling fake
cards.
