Speaking during the African Green Revolution Forum (AGRF) 2021 hosted by former BBC journalist, George Ndirangu, the Head of State noted he was looking to venture into Agriculture as a full-time career.
He was responding to a question from the host who wanted to know what his dreams were while growing up.
To answer the question, President Uhuru noted that he had looked forward to joining the defense forces but his dreams have since changed after he won the Presidency in 2013.
"To be honest, when I was growing up, I wanted to be in the defence forces but today, if you were to ask me that, I would say I want to be a farmer because that is what I am going to be when I retire," stated Uhuru.
Uhuru has made it clear that he is not interested in clinging to power beyond his term and has been making plans to retire.
In September 2020, Uhuru raised eyebrows after reports emerged that he was constructing a new mansion and road upgrade in his village home of Ichaweri, Kiambu County.
The construction of the mansion commenced in 2018, with the contractor and employees working under tight GSU security.
"The old fence is being replaced with a new one and people have been speculating it might be his retirement home. When a president retires, he must head back home to his rural area," John Wanyoike, a neighbor stated while speaking to a local daily.
