Political analyst Ambrose Weda now says that Amani National Congress (ANC) party leader Musalia Mudavadi's presidential ambition is getting out of reach.
Speaking on KBC English Service Wednesday, the High Court Advocate said that the leader's recent separation from opposition leader Raila Odinga was a big mistake which likely to instead render him irrelevant.
He stated that the leader's move to join his Ford Kenya counterpart Moses Wetangula in bashing the former Premier, following their internal wrangles, was a miscalculated move.
According to Weda, the former Deputy Prime Minister should reconsider his decision and reunite with the Orange party chief, especially now that he seems to have lost interest in the seat.
''Mudavadi should not have moved away from Raila. He must reunite with him if he is serious on his presidential bid, especially now that the former Prime Minister seems to be taking off his political boots,'' he advised.
He observed that Mudavadi is the best force against Deputy President William Ruto who has since declared his participation in the race, but will only make an with Odinga's blessings.
''With Raila behind him he will be the best candidate to battle Ruto, otherwise, he will soon be irrelevant,'' noted Weda.
The enmity between Odinga and the other side can be traced back to January 30 when the two skipped his mock inauguration, leading to a series of arguments within the opposition's National Super Alliance (NASA) and an ultimate apparent fallout.
