Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka has spoken after his Kalonzo Musyoka Foundation accounts were frozen.
The Non-Governmental Organisations Coordination Board as well dissolved the foundation’s board for their failure to account for Sh196 million.
However, Musyoka has now said that efforts by the NGO regulatory board were utter political persecution as they did not have any tangible reason to interfere with his organisation's affairs.
According to Nation, the NASA deputy leader said he was going to release a full media report on Wednesday but asked Kenyans to consider the blocking as a political tact by his rivals.
“This is political persecution," he said.
“I will respond to all issues raised tomorrow (Wednesday) and Kenyans will be very shocked with what I will reveal. You should also look at the timing of the action of the board,” he added.
This comes barely a week after Musyoka was named the opposition NASA's deputy and running-mate to the August 8 presidential candidate Raila Odinga.
