Opposition chief Raila Odinga has accused National Assembly Majority Leader Aden Duale of double crossing him despite bringing him into the political limelight.
Speaking on Thursday during a political rally in Garissa, the ODM Party leader recounted how he picked Duale from Mombasa in 2007, before fronting him for Dujis parliamentary seat which he eventually won.
“I personally picked up Duale and took him toone of the Sheikhs and a group of renown eldersin Garissa Town, and prevailed upon them tosupport him for the Dujis constituency parliamentary seat," the Star quoted Mr Odinga.
"But unfortunately Duale, a political novice then, is now among those going around the country abusing and calling me all manner of names. I leave all this to God," he added.
The Garissa Township MP has since moved to refute the claims by the former Prime Minister, observing that he is a self-made politician.
He further indicated that he is the one who has immensely contributed to the growth of Raila's political career.
