Led by former Machakos Senator Johnstone Muthama and former Cabinet Minister Titus Mbathi, the Wiper leaders also ruled out any possibility of Musyoka taking the oath.

“Why would you be sworn in just for the sake of it and yet you will not bring home any State power that can help your supporters after the event?”

Mr Mbathi is quoted by the Sunday Nation as having told Musyoka.

Muthama, who had been an vocal in pushing for a swearing-in, said the oath had no meaning which forced him to boycott it.

“I, Muthama, was co-chair of the swearing-in planning committee alongside Siaya Senator James Orengo of ODM and Ford Kenya’s Kimilili MP Simiyu Eseli. Why are people bashing my party leader Kalonzo Musyoka alone instead of seeking answers as to why we all stayed away,” Muthama said.

The leaders spoke at Stoni Athi Resort in Machakos county on Thursday.
