Mombasa Senator Hassan Omar has declared that nothing can come between him and Coalition for Reforms and Democracy (Cord) leader Raila Odinga.
Omar said he has strong ties with the former Prime Minister and does not have plans to part ways with him.
“Everybody, including my party leader, knows that my love for Raila is unshakable. He continues to be my political inspiration and mentor. Everybody knows that for me and Raila it is extremely personal in terms of a relationship that I hold dearly, a relationship that I do not think any politics can extinguish,” said Omar.
The Wiper Party secretary general affirmed that the party was not going to budge on the December 25, 2016 deadline to select a Cord presidential candidate that will seek to unseat President Uhuru Kenyatta in the next general election.
“But I am also open to advise him where I think we need to cross to Canaan. And when I look at the formula around Kalonzo Musyoka, it is a formula that Raila Odinga is either the centre or right in the centre. It is not a formula that necessarily looks outside,” he said, as quoted by Standard.
