Nyamai has dismissed claims that the former vice president is losing support of the region after a section of leaders walked away from his camp.
The legislator argues that voters from this region will vote for National Super Alliance (NASA) Presidential candidate Raila Amolo Odinga when that time comes.
Nyamai rubbished the alleged endorsed of President Uhuru Kenyatta by National Assembly Minority leader Francis Nyenze and Senator David Musila, although the latter has distanced himself from the accusations leveled against him.
“That endorsement has instead served to embolden the Kamba community’s resolve to vote for Nasa to the last man. The outrage of voters is clear even on social media and it will have no impact,” Mr Nyamai said, as quoted by Standard.
Meanwhile, Wiper Party leader Stephen Kalonzo Musyoka is walking a tight rope following the massive defection from his camp.
The departure of Machakos Governor Dr Alfred Mutua, Senator Johnson Muthama and Musila among among other leaders has continued to haunt the former vice president with less than two months to the next general elections.
