Speaking to Hivisasa on phone, the vibrant legislator said that he has decided to join the LPK party because he shares the same ideologies with the party.

“LPK is the party of the common citizens and understands the labour issues of the workers and I will join it," he said.

Namwamba quit the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) Secretary General position in August his year over what he termed as neglect of the Western region by the party leader Raila Odinga.

He will now work under new boss Julia Ojiambo who is a former Busia Member of Parliament.
