- Uhuru Kenyatta says leadership is tougher than it looks.
- Retirement is enjoyable, especially with good health.
- Suggests some leaders are already overwhelmed by the job.
Former President Uhuru Kenyatta has thrown shade at current leaders, suggesting that some are beginning to realize the true weight of leadership.
Speaking in Meru on Sunday, March 23, Uhuru dismissed the illusion that holding office is all about power and prestige, stating that only those who have served understand its challenges.
“Some people think leadership is just about power and walking around looking important, but they are in for a shock,” Uhuru remarked.
Retirement: The Good Life
Reflecting on life after leaving office, Uhuru described retirement as pleasant and stress-free, especially when one is in good health and free of responsibilities.
“Retirement is great, especially when you leave healthy and energetic. Now, I just watch others on TV,” he said.
Without naming names, the former president hinted that some leaders are already feeling the pressure, realizing that governance isn’t as effortless as they once thought.
With the subtle jab, Uhuru left many wondering who exactly he was referring to.
