Anxiety is steaming at the Luhya Elders’ Forum over chairman Patrick Wangamati's comment that Amani leader Musalia Mudavadi is a "Jubilee mole".
Mudavadi has been pushing for the formation of the National Super Alliance (NASA) which is to bring opposition leaders together ahead of the next polls.
But Wamagati said on October 25 that he cannot be trusted to join Cord because Mudavadi is being used by Jubilee party to cause divisions.
A section of elders group said in confidence that they were concerned about Wangamati's statement, which they said was issued without consultation.
They said on Thursday that the comment by the Nominated MP could be misinterpreted as the group's position.
"The statement should be taken as personal and not that of the forum. We only state our position as a forum after thorough consultations," a source told the star.
Another said: "Right now, we are concentrating on Luhya unity of purpose and the launch of Mulembe Investment Bank slated for later this year in Bungoma."
