Jubilee Party's chief whip in the National Assembly has endorsed the move by ANC Party leader Musalia Mudavadi and Ford Kenya Party's leader Moses Wetangula to merge their respective parties into one.
Mr Washiali hailed the move as a step toward uniting the Luhya nation.
''We are happy with what Musalia Mudavadi and Moses Wetangula have done. We endorse that move. That is the way to go but we want to warn that merging ANC and Ford Kenya does not mean that all Luhyas are united. There are Luhyas who are in Jubilee like me and others are in ODM,'' Mr Washiali.
The Jubilee legislator was speaking on Sunday in Western.
Mudavadi and Wetangula have made public their intentions to unite the Western region in preparation for the 2022 presidential election.
