Raphael Wanjala sensationally claims that his successor, Budalangi MP Ababu Namwamba, was a ‘spy’ within the opposition before decamping for his own outfit, Labour Party of Kenya.
Namwamba, formally ODM Secretary General, ditched the orange party after what he termed as ‘frustrations’ from top leadership of Raila Odinga’s party.
And Wanjala, a sworn political enemy of Namwamba, says the youthful politicians have been working closely with Deputy President William Ruto to sabotage the ODM party.
“Ruto preferred working with Namwamba, then in opposition than me. They were sharing crucial information which was detrimental for ODM party,” said Wanjala, who has joined ODM.
The former Assistant Minister added: “He was dangerous in ODM and its important the party realized in advance. He’d have done more harm.”
Even though Namwamba has not revealed his preferred presidential candidate, LPK delegates on Saturday hinted that they will support Uhuru Kenyatta.
Recently, David Makali, a close ally of Namwamba, was evicted as Secretary General of LPK for allegedly pushing the party to work with opposition.
