Sirisia Constituency Member of Parliament hopeful an ODM ticket Moses Nandalwe has accused Mumias East MP Benjamin Washiali of fueling an attack on CORD Principal Raila Odinga during his visit in Mumias on Friday.
Nandalwe asked Inspector General Joseph Boinet to intervene and interdict the people behind the attack on Odinga.
“We know the incident was planned by Jubilee politicians spearheaded by Washiali and we want them arrested immediately,” said Nandalwe.
This comes after Odinga was forced to leave Shibale shopping center, in Mumias unceremoniously after the crowd turned violent accusing Odinga of ODM for neglecting the residents.
Odinga was in Mumias to console residents allegedly harassed by the GSU officers who were trying to recover firearms stolen from a police station on Wednesday.
“We need some of these politicians who have been brain washed b Jubilee goodies to respect Raila who is not their equal,” said Nandalwe.
Nandalwe advised Jubilee politicians to fight Odinga in the ballot and not physically.
He emphasized that the Western region is fully behind CORD and that Jubilee tricks to taint Odinga`s political career will not work on Western residents.
