Shinyalu MP Justus Kizito Mugali of Amani National Congress (ANC) has asked Water and Irrigation Cabinet Secretary Eugene Wamalwa to leave Jubilee for NASA since his ‘time is up’ after he was left out of the cabinet.
Speaking in Kakamega on Sunday Kizito said that Eugene is a formidable leader who is respected by the people but his decision to join Jubilee has earned him ‘enemies’ since the region he comes from is supporting the opposition coalition NASA.
“I am asking him to leave Jubilee before it is too late. He has seen it himself that when he comes to Vihiga he is heckled, the same happens when he visits Bungoma,” Kizito said as quoted on Citizen TV
In addition, the vocal MP said that Eugene has a lot of say in his community only that supporting Jubilee was against the expectations of his people and as such he urged him to head to NASA to prepare for future politics.
“This means that people respect him but don’t like his decision to support Jubilee since they rejected the party long time ago,” Kizito added.
Eugene Wamalwa is among the thirteen Cabinet Secretaries that were not mentioned by President Uhuru Kenyatta to retain their ministerial positions.
