Kalonzo Musyoka-led Wiper party has agreed to support President Uhuru Kenyatta's government after wider and extensive consultations, a source has revealed.
According to the confidential source, Kalonzo engaged in wide consultations with his allies before agreeing to support the Jubilee government development agenda, the war against graft and reconciliation push.
The Wiper Party leader is said to have considered his 2022 presidential ambition, the country's unity, state of corruption and the economy before he agreed to support the Jubilee government.
Kalonzo is said to have agreed to work with the Jubilee government for the interests of Kenyans especially in the war against graft.
"There were many consultation meetings within Wiper Party before the party made the decision to work with the Jubilee government," the source said.
According to the source, the Wiper Party leader also had discussions and consultations with ODM leader Raila Odinga on phone before the Saturday decision.
"The decision was reached upon after extensive discussion's before the same was approved by the Party's National Executive Council (NEC)," the source added.
The Wiper Party leader who has been pushing for unity and reconciliation said that his party will support Jubilee's development agenda.
Kalonzo, however, said that the party's decision to support the ruling government does not mean that it will keep quiet when wrongs are done.
He said that the party will continue to play the watchdog role as part of the opposition.
The Jubilee government has welcomed Kalonzo's latest move even as claims emerge that the former Vice President and other opposition leaders might be included in government in the looming reshuffles.
