Political analyst cum politician David Makali now claims his stance on who Labor Party of Kenya was support for the presidency in the August 8th polls was the key reason for being kicked out as the party's secretary general.
Makali has revealed that his reluctance to support Uhuru Kenyatta's reelection bid, which was opposed to what most of the NEC members wanted, was the reason they had plotted his demise as the parties Secretary General.
"I am aware that this malicious action was prompted by my stance on the matter of which candidate the party should back for President," he wrote in a statement to newsrooms on Saturday.
"My reluctance against the hawkish and premature enthusiasm exhibited by some NEC members to support the Jubilee Candidate (UK) is not reason enough to sink this low surely!" He added.
He also said that differing in ideology should have not be a reason enough to oust him from the party and called on the party to solve their internal matters in an amicable and democratic way.
"We can differ in opinion and views/ preference but sort out things amicably and democratically within the confines of the party rules," Wrote the Bungoma Senator hopeful.
