Wiper party leader Kalonzo Musyoka has expressed optimism that Opposition leaders will remain united and focused under the National Super Alliance (NASA).
Speaking on Tuesday when the leaders unveiled a 12-member coordination committee that will pursue the formation of the new political outfit, Kalonzo said the opposition will not give some slack in their mission of ousting the Jubilee administration.
“Our quest for a united front is a direct response to the very clear messages from the Kenyan public that we must unite to rescue them and the country from the Jubilee misrule. These calls for unity have intensified as the lot of our people has gotten worse under the current regime," said Kalonzo as quoted by Capitalfm News.
The former vice president at the same time accused President Uhuru Kenyatta and his deputy William Ruto of failing to meet the pledges they made to Kenyans ahead of 2013 elections.
"This alliance is a special purpose movement to uproot Jubilee regime from power for its misrule and abdication of responsibility and collusion in runaway corruption, and dwindling state of Kenya’s economy," Kalonzo added.
The Cord co-principal said NASA's main purpose is to cement opposition unity in the forthcoming August elections and “forming a people-focused government thereafter.”
