Wiper Party Leader Kalonzo Musyoka has opened up on being betrayed while at the same time sending a tough warning to Ukambani politicians who are counting his name to win the 2022 general election.
Kalonzo has specifically pointed out at Makueni Governor Kivutha Kibwana and Machakos Governor Alfred Mutua who shifted their loyalty after getting into power.
He stated that he sealed a deal with Kibwana who eventually clinched the Makueni Gubernatorial seat only for him to betray the Wiper party.
“This time around I will not be partisan to any particular candidates as I did before,” Kalonzo told the Standard.
He has also pinpointed Mutua who started rebelling against him after the 2013 gubernatorial elections.
Mutua ditched Wiper Party to form Mandeleo Chap Chap which he successfully used to clinch his second term.
“I, therefore, advise those intending to cling on my coat to capture the seat to forget because I want to remain neutral,” Kalonzo told Machakos residents
In his message to the leaders from the Ukambani region, Kalonzo has stated that he would not endorse any candidate in the upcoming general election.
Speaking in Machakos County, the Wiper leader advised Ukambani leaders to instead focus on marketing their manifestos to the people in order to clinch whichever seat they will vie for.
Kalonzo has further claimed that he learned the hard way against endorsing candidates where wiper failed to prosper in the Ukambani region.
Those willing to vie on Wiper tickets were free to do as long as they qualify in the party primaries.”
These sentiments come as Kalonzo seeks to cement his presidential bid.
