Kajiyama generated controversy in 1990 when, after an arrest of prostitutes in Shinjuku, in which he was involved in a racist incident by calling blacks "Prostitutes" when talking about the shinjuku neighborhood saying that "Here it happens like in the neighborhoods of United States, that the arrival of the blacks forces the whites to leave.” This again generated protests and caused the United States Department of State to pronounce itself condemning such words and describing them as "extremely racist" and that any type of prejudice against an ethnic group is highly reprehensible and that these words were very offensive to the American people for which he apologized in the days that followed. who apologized in the following days."
He then served as Secretary-General of the LDP from 1992 to 1993, resigning in the wake of the unsuccessful 1993 general election.
In a political comeback, he was appointed Chief Cabinet Secretary under Prime Minister Ryutaro Hashimoto from January 1996 to July 1998, and thereafter unsuccessfully challenged Keizo Obuchi for the presidency of the LDP.
In the midst of a financial crisis, Kajiyama advocated allowing large banks to fail through a "hard landing" policy, rather than providing government support to keep them afloat.
Kajiyama was involved in a traffic accident in January 2000, and retired from politics in April of that year.
He later underwent treatment for clogged arteries, and died at a Tokyo hospital in June of that year.
He was survived by his wife and two children.
