Makueni Governor Kivutha Kibwana has urged Kalonzo Musyoka to work with Deputy President William Ruto.
Speaking on Monday, Kibwana said that Kalonzo should also try to talk to other national leaders.
The Wiper Governor advised Kalonzo forget his deal with Orange Democratic Leader Raila Odingaand forge ahead with new alliances.
“Mr Musyoka should enter into coalitions with other voting blocs in the country and initiate negotiations with President Kenyatta, Deputy President William Ruto. Let him do handshakes and heart shakes that will benefit us and Kenya. It is up to Hon Raila Odinga to decide when the time comes whether he will pay his political debt to his 2017 NASA colleagues. If not, we must still be prepared to move on to victory without hard feelings,” Prof Kibwana said.
Kibwana said Kalonzo should declare his interests and speak for himself.
“We wish to ask Kalonzo that from now on, he should not have anybody negotiate for him. Ahandshake can be only between two people. Raila’s handshake is Raila’s handshake. This is said as I express my deepest respect for Raila. But now Kalonzo must define his own political trajectory post-2017. We appreciate that the first handshake did change Kenya’s political environment. It was an act of courage and patriotism. But in my humble view, Kalonzo, Mudavadi and Wetang’ulamust define their own future politics without reference to the flagship business of 2017.That period is now closed,” he added.
After the famous handshake, Kalonzo has remained silent from the political scene.
