Photo/Aden Duale/Facebook]The National Assembly Majority Leader Aden Duale has revealed that Nasa presidential flag-bearer Raila Odinga and his running mate, Kalonzo Musyoka have proposed their relatives to the East Africa Legislative Assembly (EALA).Duale disclosed Raila had proposed his brother, ODM Nominated MP Oburu Odinga, to the Assembly, while Musyoka proposed his son, Kennedy Musyoka, yet they are not qualified.He criticised the two Opposition chiefs, saying their main aim was to see their families and relatives benefit from top positions in the country, instead of ensuring equity in work allocations."I am surprised that the people who have applied, is the son of Hon Kalonzo Musyoka. The other person who is being fronted, is the brother to Raila Amolo Odinga, Hon Oburu Odinga,'' Dule said, Sunday.He added: "Today Kenyans can confirm, who is being tribal. Not only tribal, but who wants to use the parties, the national parties that they run, to reward their own family members.''The Garissa Township MP wondered ''under what category was Oburu Odinga nominated" saying it was not on gender, marginalized groups, disability, nor youth.He further warned that he would lead MPs from both the ruling Jubilee Party and those of Opposition, to reject the names of the two, when parliament resumes sittings this May."And I want to state categorically, I will lead the whole membership of the National Assembly to reject those two nominees.''"So I want to tell Raila Odinga and Kalonzo Musyoka, that you can not use your positions in political parties you run, to reward your sons and brothers,'' noted Duale.
