Sospeter Ojamong, the Busia governor in an interview with the star newspaper said that Ababu was lured by money from the Jubilee side into ditching ODM.

According to Ojamong, the financial assistance towards Ababu’s new Labour  party is no longer provided something that has made the lawmaker unable to run the Labour Party.

 “Ababu was a visionary leader who was destined for greatness in this country’s political game. The switch that he made from ODM to Labour Party will, however, cost him considering the Jubilee party money taps have already dried up,” Ojamong is quoted by the Star.

The Busia county boss further went ahead and hinted that Namwamba might return back to ODM following financial constrains in the Labour Party.

Ababu ditched ODM last year July citing frustrations from the party’s top leadership.

Funyula MP Paul Otuoma who ditched ODM alongside Ababu has since returned to the party.He joined the Labour Party of Kenya where he elected as the chairman while journalist David Makali was voted as the secretary general.

In August 2016, Deputy President William Ruto sensationally claimed that he was behind Ababu’s exit from ODM.
