Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu on Wednesday advised President Uhuru Kenyatta to stop entertaining Opposition Chief Raila Odinga.
Speaking in Ol Kalou constituency during the burial of Nyandarua Governor Francis Kimemia's younger brother, Reverend Samuel Kimemia, Waititu called upon the President to exercise firmness especially when dealing with the Opposition's "endless demands".
Governor Waititu urged President Kenyatta to take tough action including the use of legal mechanisms against Mr Odinga if he does not stop the idea of a resistance movement.
"We are telling Uhuru that he is not a Bishop. He should whip someone who causes problems because we want peace in Kenya," Waititu stated.

Addressing Mr Odinga, the Governor noted that he (Odinga) should do away with the call for mass action and use the legal means if he felt aggrieved.
"You have tried and lost. It is God who has refused you. Stop troubling us and threatening to do this or that," the Governor was quoted by the Star.
The MP made the remarks following recent remarks by the Opposition leaders that they will not recognise President Kenyatta and will conduct protests to resist the government.
Speaking on Wednesday, NASA CEO Norman Magaya explained that the Alliance was planning to go back to the streets, adding that protest marshalls had been trained and civil organisations retained to provide lessons on how to conduct peaceful protests.
"We have retained services from civil organisations on peaceful assembly and protests. We intend to use the organisations to ensure that our people are guided accordingly," Magaya stated.

Regarding the issue of boycotting business entities which are accused of supporting Jubilee, the CEO noted that a list will be provided next week giving directions to their supporters.
"The exercise will be objective. We will show the links that each of these business entities have had either in compromising NASA's quest for free and fair election or how they are facilitating this dictatorship," the NASA CEO noted.
Mr Magaya also mentioned that businesses with a portrait of President Kenyatta should be avoided since the coalition does not recognise the President-elect.
