At no time will I ever support men devoid of any decency and moral character,” he said during the burial ceremony of the Eldoret based Human Rights activists Ken Wafula in Likuyani Constituency, Friday.“As Luhya leaders, we now don’t have faith in their leadership. I also regret supporting Musalia Mudavadi to be luhya's spokesman, I want to state here categorically that I will never support him in my entire life,” he added.He reiterated that if Mudavadi knew that he was going to skip the event, he should have said so early instead of switching off his mobile and going into hiding at his neighbor's servant’s quarter.“A person who aspires to be president should not be afraid of anything, we expected him to rally behind Raila Odinga instead he chickened out,” noted Atwoli.He, however, urged Luhya community to remain united ahead of 2022 elections for them to ascend to power.
