Opposition coalition NASA co-principal Musalia Mudavadi has refuted claims that the outfit is looking to form a government of national unity with the Jubilee administration.
Speaking on Monday through his spokesman Kibisu Kabatesi, Mudavadi insisted that NASA is only keen in having dialogue with Jubilee on matters electoral reforms.
The Amani National Congress leader was reacting to reports that the US and Israel are pushing for the formation of a government of national unity.
“We are unaware of the push by the US and Israel for a government of national unity. The push by US and EU for Raila to stop the swearing-in plan is in the public domain and isn’t in good faith," Kabatesi said.
"None of the affiliates of NASA wants to be part of Jubilee, a monster we have denounced. We are for substantive changes to achieve fundamental electoral justice for the posterity of Kenyans,” he added.
On Monday, US Ambassador to Kenya Robert Godec met Leader of Minority in the National Assembly John Mbadi and his Senate counterpart, Moses Wetang’ula, in a move aimed at asking the leaders to prevail upon Opposition chief Raila Odinga to shelve his swearing in plans.
The NASA leader is said to be planning to take oath of office as the People's President later this month.
