Budalang'i Member of Parliament Ababu Namwamba has said his Labour Party decided to work with President Kenyatta because of his commitment to development.
Speaking in his constituency on Wednesday, the Labour party leader urged the residents of Budalangi, Funyula, Bumala and the whole of the Western region to support the president and his deputy as well.
He thanked President Uhuru Kenyatta for fulfilling his promise by ensuring that the Sigiri bridge is constructed and for creating employment for 900 young people in Budalangi constituency under the National Youth Service youth empowerment program.
Ababu, who decamped from the Orange Democratic Movement, has been criticising the opposition for “unnecessary” criticism on the government.
The former ODM secretary general had accompanied Uhuru and hid deputy William Ruto to Busia County in a vote hunt mission.
