KALONZO is a heartbeat away from joining Azimio as he holds a closed-door meeting with RAILA in Mombasa – Here are the details!

 

Monday, February 21, 2022 – Wiper Leader Kalonzo Musyoka is only inches away from joining Azimio la Umoja Movement.

This is after he held a closed-door meeting with ODM Leader Raila Odinga yesterday at a hotel in Mombasa to finalize coalition talks.

Raila met the OKA principals over breakfast and also had discussions about their rallies in the Coast region, where both factions have pitched camp.

Both Raila and the OKA principals had made plans to hold a political rally at the Tononoka Grounds in Mombasa, which could have caused confusion. 

“We met with Odinga this morning. We had earlier planned to hold our rally at the Tononoka grounds but they had booked the venue earlier,” Kalonzo stated.

KANU Party Leader Gideon Moi was also present at the meeting. OKA agreed to hold their meeting at the Kadongo grounds in Kisauni, with Kalonzo stating that he wished the ODM leader a successful campaign tour.

The meeting between Raila and Kalonzo dispelled suspicion of any bad blood between the leaders.

On February 17, the ex-Vice President denied having talks with the former Premier, stating that they had not been initiated.

“Everybody knows the story of me and Raila that runs for 10 political years. 

“We win sometimes and other times we fail. We are talking to them but I can tell you that even those talks have not fully begun,” he stated

However, Kalonzo confirmed that he was in talks with Jubilee Party Leader President Uhuru Kenyatta, on forming a possible coalition since the two parties had mutual ideologies.
