Monday, September 16, 2024 - Azimio One Kenya Alliance leader, Raila Odinga, has suffered a major blow after former Kitui County Governor, Charity Ngilu, dumped him for Kalonzo Musyoka.
Speaking on Sunday, Ngilu said
she was disappointed with the former Prime Minister’s move to work with
President William Ruto.
“Would we be wrong if we said
Ruto has also destroyed our country by collaborating with Raila? Would it be
farfetched for us to make such an accusation?” Ngilu posed.
The former Governor said it was
time Kalonzo was made the leader of Azimio and expressed optimism that the
Wiper leader could win the presidency in 2027.
“We shall make it. Let leaders
don their shoes and fight on behalf of the people. Let us not assume that we
will get the top seat on a silver platter. No one will give it out, it has to
be fought for,” Ngilu stated.
She also called on the Kamba
community to register as voters ahead of the 2027 general election, saying it
will ensure Kalonzo has over 2 million supporters backing him.
Ngilu also asked Kalonzo's supporters to be prepared, noting that winning the presidency is not a walk in
the park.
“Kambas should be ready with
their IDs and register as voters. This will ensure we give Kalonzo two to three
million votes. We can then seek the support of other ethnic groups,” Ngilu
added.
