Kitui Governor Charity Ngilu has backed Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka's decision to work with and support President Uhuru Kenyatta's development agenda.
Ngilu says that Kalonzo's move is the step in the right direction, adding that Kamba leaders should support him.
She said that Kalonzo's move represents the wish of the Kamba community.
She also noted that it is time leaders put aside their differences and focused on development and Kenyans unity and that Kamba community fully supports President Kenyatta's Big Four development agenda.
"Kalonzo has done the right thing in agreeing to work and support President Kenyatta's development agenda and we are behind him," the NARC Governor said as quoted by a local daily.
The Kitui county boss hit out at critics questioning Kalonzo's move terming them as enemies of unity and progress.
Ngilu said that Kalonzo will play a key role in the push for the country's unity, reconciliation and electoral justice.
She added that Kalonzo's chances of succeeding President Uhuru Kenyatta in 2022 will be more live following his move to support the government.
Last week, Kalonzo's party declared support for President Kenyatta's development agenda.
Kalonzo said that his party supports the unity push between President Kenyatta and ODM leader Raila Odinga.
He, however, said that his party will not keep quiet if the government do wrongs and that that the party will play its role as the watchdog since it is part of the country's opposition.
