Former Cabinet Secretary Charity Ngilu has criticised Kitui West MP Francis Nyenze and Kitui Senator David Musila’s endorsement of Jubilee’s policies.
Ngilu on Wednesday said it was a waste of time to sing President Uhuru Kenyatta’s praises in attempts to market Jubilee in Ukambani.
Nyenze and Musila shocked many when they publicly asked Ukambani voters to elect President Uhuru Kenyatta.
The MP is a member of the Wiper party, an affiliate of the opposition NASA.
Ngilu also challenged her rival for the Kitui governor’s seat, Musila and Nyenze to brace for voters’ wrath in the August 8 elections for “being political traitors at home.”
“Musila and Nyenze should be told plainly. You cannot be political traitors at home by going against a bedrock voting pattern. The voters will whip both of you out at the ballot,” she said, as reported by The Standard.
Drumming up support for her bid at Mulutu, Ithiani, Tiva and Kyamathyaka in Changithya West locations in her former Kitui Central constituency, Ngilu said it was unfortunate that when the Kamba community was consolidating its support behind Wiper leader and NASA presidential running mate Kalonzo Musyoka, Musila and Nyenze were busy trying to derail the people’s hopes to presidency this time round.
She urged the residents to reject political leaders allied to Jubilee, saying she was the last sacrificial lamb in Uhuru’s regime in the 2013 elections.
