National Super Alliance (NASA) presidential running mate Kalonzo Musyoka has pleaded with the Kamba community to vote for Raila Odinga in the coming August 8 polls.
Addressing supporters during a campaign rally in Kangundo on Wednesday, Kalonzo said that his 2022 presidential bid will be automatic if Raila wins in next month’s general election.
The Wiper party leader said that it is time for the Ukambani region to stand with him and massively vote for NASA.
Kalonzo dismissed claims that the UKambani region got a raw deal in the NASA agreement, saying that the community stands to benefit in 2022.
“I want to assure you that come 2022, I will be the one heading to State House because we have a written and signed agreement with Raila Odinga,” he said as quoted by People Daily.
Kalonzo asked the Kamba community not to be swayed by Jubilee government which he said is only interested in their votes.
The Wiper leader accused UhuRuto of using some Ukambani politicians to incite and cause division among locals.
“Jubilee is not interested in addressing the issues facing you as locals but rather wants your votes to retain power and continue its tyranny rule,” he said.
The NASA running mate maintained that Ukambani is firmly in NASA, saying that Jubilee should back off and wait for humiliating defeat on August 8.
