The infighting within the opposition's National Super Alliance (NASA) seems to have taken another turn with a section of the coalition's top bosses now hurling threats.
Bungoma Senator Moses Wetangula, on Saturday, in his home county, vowed to teach NASA supremo Raila Odinga a lesson over what he termed as embarrassment and betrayal in the hands of the former Premier, remarks that were supported by his co-principal Musalia Mudavadi.
''We have regrouped and will teach him a lesson. We will give him sleepless nights,'' said Wetangula in Chwele, remarks he echoed on Sunday.
Despite shouting at the top of their voices lately, over Wetangula's Senate Minority Leader ouster, the two are unlikely to achieve any reasonable result, with Odinga cleverly and indirectly fighting back from behind the scene.
Odinga has left the battle to his juniors, with the likes of his Orange Democratic Party (ODM) Secretary General Edwin Sifuna and Kakamega Governor Wycliffe Oparanya being deployed to combat the two while he watches from afar.
Raila has also since cleared himself of blame by portraying himself as the arbitrator who tried to intervene to save Wetangula from the ouster. This has, on the other hand, portrayed the Senator as the villain, for turning against his savior.
Following accusations of betrayal from Mudavadi over his move to join hands with President Uhuru Kenyatta, Odinga, seemingly having prophesied this moment, is off the hook as he was never quoted anywhere describing the duo as traitors when they snubbed his Uhuru Park inauguration event, further, silently pinning them down.
His senators' move to allocate the Senate Deputy Minority boss seat to the vocal Kakamega Senator Cleopa Malala also seems to have been a well calculated move, with the young lawmaker tearing into his party leader, Musalia Mudavadi, in defense of Odinga.
It is also surprising to see that most of those defending the veteran politician from the duo are from their own community.
