Wiper Democratic Movement party leader Kalonzo Musyoka has said he is the best candidate for the presidency.
Speaking in Mombasa on Saturday, Kalonzo told Cord co-principals Raila Odinga and Moses Wetangula to give him the Cord presidential ticket.
The former vice president promised to form a corruption free government if he ascends to power.
He said he will make the Mombasa-Nairobi highway a dual carriageway if elected president.
“I have sacrificed my ambitions for others in the past. I feel it is high time others also make some sacrifice for me. I want to be the Cord flagbearer,” he said.
Kalonzo was accompanied by Wiper Secretary General Hassan Omar, Mutula Kilonzo Jr (Makueni Senator), Machakos Senator Johnson Muthama, and several MPs.
Wiper party will hold another rally today (Sunday) at the Tononoka Grounds at 2pm.
Meanwhile in Kisumu, Raila announced that Cord affiliate parties; ODM, Wiper Democratic Movement and Ford Kenya, will each work to strengthen their outfits and later agree on a candidate to face President Uhuru Kenyatta in the polls.
The ODM leader dismissed reports that there were rifts within the Opposition coalition.
“Our unity is still intact and nobody should mistake our current separate rallies to mean disunity,” he said.
