Former Local Government Minister Musikari Kombo has sensationally accused Opposition alliance NASA co-principals Musalia Mudavadi and Senator Moses Wetangula of betraying the Luhya Community.

Speaking in Webuye on Monday, Kombo claimed that the duo's decision to back former Prime Minister Raila Odinga for presidency during the forthcoming general elections amounted to betrayal.

“I and Eugene Wamalwa sacrificed and supported Musalia as our son thinking that even if he didn’t win in 2013 he could be on the ballot this year, only [for him] to come out and betray the Luhya community,” Kombo noted.

“How do those who supported him in 2013 feel now after he abandoned his presidential bid and asked us to support Raila?" He posed.

Both Mudavadi and Wetangula had expressed interest in vying for presidency under the NASA ticket, before bowing out in favour of Mr Odinga.

They are poised for senior government positions should NASA win the presidency in August.
