[Photo|Capital FM]Kalonzo Musyoka's Wiper Democratic Movement Kenya (WDM-K) has echoed NASA leader Raila Odinga's call for establishment of an interim government.During an interview with Reuters, Tuesday Odinga said his NASA coalition wants an interim government to run the country for six months as the constitution gets reviewed to curb the president’s authority.He said he was open to talks with President Uhuru Kenyatta over a constitutional review that will lower the risk of violence from minority groups who feel excluded from power."We think that maybe six months will be required to carry out all these changes that we need in this country," Odinga who has since declared he does not recognise Uhuru as president, said.WDM-K through its Organising Secretary Robert Mbui, the party which is affiliate of NASA greatly supports calls top see Kenyatta is constitutionally sent home."We also want the country to know that, as WDMK strongly support the formation of an interim government comprising Jubilee and NASA," he said."It is our considered opinion that this government should exist for six months or more, so as to allow for all the necessary reforms needed for free, fair, credible and transparent elections."In a statement Wiper urged all Kenyans of goodwill to relentlessly and tirelessly support NASA in its endeavor to save Kenya from "the shackles of dictatorship, corruption, tribalism, and cronyism – ills that have bedeviled our country for the past 54 years.""For us in WDMK, and for NASA in general, we will pursue with absolute determination our goal of removing Jubilee from power through constitutional and legal means. Kenyans deserve so, so much better," Mbui said on Thursday.Odinga who arrived in Washington DC Wednesday also said a constitutional review will strengthen institutions like the electoral commission and cut down the powers of the presidency, since a pure presidential system enhances ethnicity because each community believes that they are not safe unless their man is at the top.“A pure presidential system enhances ethnicity because each community believes that they are not safe unless their man is at the top. We had a new constitution that we enacted in 2010. We think that now it is time to revisit it,” Odinga said during the interview in his office on Tuesday.
