National Assembly Majority Leader Aden Duale and Senate deputy Majority Leader Kipchumba Murkomen have warned Rift Valley leaders against undermining the government.
Speaking on Monday during former nominated MP Mark Too's funeral service in Kapseret, Uasin Gishu County, the two dismissed the leaders as being jealous, saying their efforts will fail.
“Those who are opposed to the leadership of Deputy President are jealous of his political star and nothing else,” said Duale.
“If there are some people who think that Jubilee will carry out sham nominations so that they benefit from those who will defect to their parties, I want to tell them that there will be no such a chance,” he added.
On his part, Murkomen assured Kenyans of free, fair and credible elections, saying the laws which were passed in the Senate last week had nothing to do with the manual voting system, adding they will still come up with a legislation that would streamline the voting process.
“What we passed were bi-partisan laws where the House (Senate) was well represented. I must say it was 50 plus 10,” said Murkomen.
Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria urged Opposition leaders to withdraw cases pending in court in regard to the operations of Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC), saying the cases have become an impediment to the implementation of electoral process.
