Murkomen, further, advised Wetangula that he should change sides as early as Tuesday next week, promising to get him a seat on the opposite side.
The legislator added that Wetangula ought to join a team that recognises and appreciates him.
"Those skills we have been admiring of him can be transferred to this side of the floor," expressed Murkomen amid laughter.
However, he was quick assert that Jubilee is not interested in creating any other fault lines in the NASA coalition.
The city lawyer exclaimed that he is not worried that someone can also replace him since there is a way in which things are done in Jubilee that is different from the way things are done from their counterparts in NASA.
16 ODM Senators on Thursday attempted to oust Wetangula as Minority leader and replace him with Siaya Senator James Orengo.
The Senators further noted that Wetangula could not lead them by force as he was even getting applauded by senators from the Jubilee side during Senate sittings.
