Bomariba ward MCA Protus Moindi has urged party leader Raila Odinga to forget party rebels and concentrate on clinching the top seat come 2017.
Speaking at Bigogo area in Bomariba, the MCA said that Raila should forgive the rebels and concentrate on 2017 elections.
Moindi who was elected on an ODM ticket said that it is bad for one after being nurtured and helped politically turn against the person who helped them grow.
"Ababu's exit show how Kenyans do forget easily. He came from nowhere but Raila shaped him to what he is today. Odinga should take it as temptations before him and move on," said Moindi.
"Even as he is planning to tour Busia county the home of Ababu Namwamba, I plead to Odinga to pass a message of unity to the supporters," he added.
He said that come 2017 he will still be in the race and believes he will be given an ODM ticket.
He urged his opponents to compete him peacefully and not inciting residents.
