Machakos Senator Johnson Muthama has said that Wiper party under the leadership of Former Vice President Stephen Kalonzo Musyoka has betrayed the Kamba community.
The senator, who has been a strong critic of the Jubilee administration said that Kalonzo has been imposing leaders on the people of this part of the nation, citing the case of Machakos Governor Dr. Alfred Mutua.
The senator said that he has no reason to contest for the seat in the forthcoming general polls when the party boss has been imposing leaders on the people.
"I do not feel that I have the face, anymore, to campaign or face out supporters of Wiper all over because the party has betrayed the people's trust, just like it did in 2013, by [imposing] Governor Alfred Mutua on the people."
The senator said that he decision to leave the race for the senate came as a result of mismanagement by Kalonzo and other members of the top brass.
The outspoken legislator stated clearly that he will concentrate on rallying the electorate behind Cord leader Raila Odinga ahead of the August polls, adding that there is favorism within the party after some of the candidates were given direct tickets.
"Makueni Governor Kivutha Kibwana and CCU leader Wavinya Ndeti were given tickets while others were left to go through nominations which were marred by irregularities," he said.
