Machakos Governor Alfred Mutua Reveals How Raila Odinga is Tricking the Kamba Community

Machakos Governor Alfred Mutua has exposed how National Super Alliance (NASA) leader Raila Odinga is tricking the Kamba community with false promises.

Speaking on Monday during a meeting between President Uhuru Kenyatta and Ukambani Leaders at Statehouse, Mr. Mutua revealed that Wiper Leader Kalonzo Musyoka was getting a raw deal for the Kamba community in the agreement with the opposition leader.

"Kwa hayo makubaliano yao hawajasema ati kwa bahati mbaya Raila akishindwa atamuachia Kalonzo huo wakati mwingine ( In their agreement there isn't a clause that says if by bad luck Raila loses the election, he will give a chance for Kalonzo to run for the presidency)" he began.

He revealed that the many loopholes in the agreement had left many questions as the Luhya community had also been promised the presidency after Raila won.

"Waluhya wameambiwa wataachiwa, Mudavadi na Wetangula ndio wataachiwa (The Luhya have been told they will be given the presidency through Mudavadi or Moses Wetangula).

"Wakamba tunaambiwa ni Kalonzo ataachiwa, tunadanganywa! Ka hivyo watu wetu wajue tunachezewa karata (on the other hand, the Kamba are told it is Kalonzo who will be made president which is a lie. We (Kamba) should know we are being taken for a ride)" he explained.

Mr Mutua further stated that Raila Odinga would not give up the presidency easily if elected.

"Raila amengojea urais kwa miaka hiyo yote mtafikiri ataacha baada ya term moja tu. ati acchie mtu mwingine? (Raila has waited all those years to become president and then you think he is going to give it up after one term for someone else?)" he posed.

During the meeting, some Ukambani leaders clashed over who should lead Uhuru's campaign in the region.

The differences between the leaders emerged over last week's endorsement of Peter Muthoka as head of President Kenyatta's campaigns in Ukambani.

The Ukambani leaders lashed out at each other in front of the President and his Deputy William Ruto calling their colleagues 'political brokers'.
