Details have emerged of a secret eight-hour meeting between Musalia Mudavadi and Uhuru’s Cousin and Kenyatta’s family spokesman Capt Kungu Muigai hosted by Jubilee Vice chairman David Murathe.
Kungu is known to be in the President’s inner circle and is the patron of the National Council of Elders and Inter-community Networking Group.
Murathe, who is also Uhuru’s confidant, hosted the two for eight hours at his rural home in Gatanga.
The meeting was held from 5 pm on Saturday after the burial of renown businessman Muchai Githu in Gatanga constituency.
The ANC party leader is reported to have left Murathe's house after midnight, sparking intense speculation on the mission and substance of their meeting.
In the meeting described as "a men-only club", Murathe had also invited several businessmen and influential political operatives.
Murathe told the Star that Mudavadi had shown up for the funeral and he decided to host him since former area MP Peter Kenneth and sitting MP had left for Kitale.
"I was then left with these foreigners who have visited our village and I slaughtered for them as a good host. In fact, I was in China and I brought my trip back by one day to make it for the funeral.
"I drove from the airport straight to Gatanga. I had no clue that he (Mudavadi) was coming but it is true we spent a lot of time together. You know I went to school with him. Do not read anything into it,” Murathe mentioned.
Murathe., who is also well known to Mudavadi, was at the forefront in the formation of TNA party and later transformation of the Jubilee Coalition into Jubilee Alliance Party, the precursor to the current Jubilee Party.
