Malindi MP hopeful Aisha Jumwa has hit out at President Uhuru Kenyatta and his Deputy William Ruto’s over claim that NASA is afraid of the August 8 polls.
Jumwa said NASA can never be afraid of facing UhuRuto in any election.Speaking to journalists in Malindi on Thursday, the vocal MP said NASA is well prepared to send the Jubilee government home.The Kilifi Women Representative accused Jubilee of using propaganda to gain political mileage.Jumwa said concerns being raised by NASA in regards to the August 8 polls do not indicate that the opposition is afraid of the election."I am wondering why Jubilee is worried and tensed over the election issues we as NASA are raising unless they are planning something sinister,” said Jumwa, as quoted by the Nation.Jumwa said NASA will fight on to ensure the August 8 polls are free and fair.This comes amid claims by the opposition that Jubilee is planning to rig the August 8 polls.On Tuesday, NASA presidential flag bearer Raila Odinga claimed that there is a plot by the UhuRuto-led government to use military in rigging the polls.The Jubilee administration has since rubbished NASA’s claims terming them as mere propaganda.
