A section of Kiambu politicians have cautioned Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka against taking oath as the people’s deputy president.
The politicians led by Governor Ferdinand Waititu claim that NASA politicians are forcing the Wiper leader to take oath.
Speaking during a church service at St John Happy Valley ACK church in Thika Town on Sunday, the politicians asked Kalonzo not to fall into NASA leader Raila Odinga's political trap.
Waititu asked the the former Vice President to quit the NASA if he is to survive politically.
The Kiambu governor said that Kalonzo has been treated as ‘flower girl’ for many years with nothing to show for it..
“Kalonzo Musyoka should be wise enough and not fall into NASA’s push of taking an illegal swearing in,” he said.
Waititu said Kalonzo stands to gain nothing even if he is sworn in as the people’s deputy president.
He claimed that NASA is on its ‘deathbed’, adding that Kalonzo will be doing himself a favor if he ditched the coalition.
“We are ready to welcome Kalonzo to Jubilee if he decides to ditch NASA,” Kiambu senator who attended the church service said.
Wamatangi said that Raila will not endorse Kalonzo Musyoka's presidential bid in 2022.
"What we know is that Raila will be on the presidential ballot in 2022 and, therefore, it is upon Kalonzo to decide and shape his politics now," he said.
The Jubilee senator urged Kenyans to ignore the opposition and support President Uhuru Kenyatta’s development agenda.
Kalonzo has been under criticism for snubbing Raila Odinga’s inauguration on January 30.
The former Vice President has been under pressure to abandon the NASA coalition on grounds that Raila might not support him in 2022.
Kalonzo, however, maintains that he is in the Raila Odinga-led coalition to stay.
