Former Mombasa gubernatorial candidate Suleiman Shabhal has now claimed that NASA leader Raila Odinga is plotting a political comeback in 2022.
Speaking on Tuesday, Shabhal claimed that Raila is reorganizing himself for 2022 after realizing that he had committed a political blunder following his withdrawal from the presidential race a couple of days ago.
"The stakes will be at an unprecedented high come 2022 but Jubilee will triumph," he remarked.
"As far as we are concerned, we have already won this election and what is certain is Jubilee will still win in 2022," he added.
Shahbal asserted that Raila's withdrawal from the race was ill-advised, noting that the move had set stage for the crumbling of the former Prime Minister's political dynasty.
Following his withdrawal from the race, Mr Odinga has asked his supporters to boycott the upcoming presidential repeat polls slated for Thursday.
He cited lack of electoral reforms as reason for his withdrawal.
