At a time when the opposition coalition NASA is starting to take shape, Bungoma Governor Ken Lusaka has rebutted claims that he is planning to join the outfit.
Speaking on a local TV station on Thursday, the Governor denied that he is planning to bolt out of the Uhuru Kenyatta-led Jubilee Party, adding that he is happy to be part of it.
According to the former Permanent Secretary, he does not regret joining Jubilee even as he made claims that NASA has nothing to offer as it is only interested in accommodating the egos of the principals with non-existent positions.
Lusaka, who comes from the region that is pro-opposition, was also quick to dismiss claims by a section of leaders that Pan-Paper Mills in Webuye which was recently re-opened by the President has ceased operating.
He further accused opposition of having no agenda for Kenya.
The former New Ford Kenya Party leader was also quick to defend the President from accusations that he has sidelined the former Western Province. He said that much has been done in the region since the new regime came into power.
