Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka has revealed why he asked Makueni Governor Kivutha Kibwana to fold his Muungano party and join the Cord affiliate party.
This is after Kibwana signed pact with Kalonzo where he will seek re-election on a Wiper ticket.
According to Kalonzo, he reached to Kivutha in order to help him have a high bargaining power to be the next NASA presidential candidate.
"The ongoing negotiations for the Nasa presidential candidate have reached a level where I need the backing of respected individuals such as Prof Kibwana," Mr Musyoka said.
"Starting today, you will never hear Senator Mutula Kilonzo Jr and Governor Kivutha Kibwana speaking in different voices," added Mr Musyoka.
The former Vice President assured Kivutha supporters that he will be treated with a lot of respect.
