Nominated MP Johnson Sakaja has claimed that Wiper party leader Kalonzo Musyoka could join Jubilee Party in the run up to this year's general election.
Speaking during an interview on Radio Maisha on Thursday, Sakaja said Kalonzo had already told his people that he would take them to the government after August 8.
According to the former TNA chairman, the only way that was possible was through the Jubilee Party and not the opposition.
Sakaja further said that Kalonzo was going to be left with a bitter taste if he loses the NASA's presidential nomination and thus, force a switch to Jubilee Party before the elections.
"Kalonzo Musyoka is not ready to lose again this time. He has already told the people that he will take them to government after the August elections and the only way to do that is through Jubilee Party. Kalonzo will not bear the burden of losing the presidential nomination in NASA as was in Cord before the 2013 elections," said Sakaja.
The lawmaker further reiterated that Kalonzo's supporters had already experienced voter fatigue through the years, and would automatically call for the leader to join a political team destined to win the 2017 elections.
According to Sakaja, Jubilee was the team to beat in 2017, and Kalonzo may shift to the party to please his supporters.
"Kalonzo's supporters have also experienced voter fatigue where they lose every time against the incumbent government. This is among the reasons why he (Kalonzo) may join Jubilee in the long run," added Sakaja.
