The National Super Alliance (NASA) has been dealt a political blow after a brother to one of their principals Senator Moses Wetangula ditched the coalition for Jubilee.
Fred Wetangula together with loyal youths who have been working with Ford Kenya said they will now work with President Uhuru Kenyatta's Jubilee Party because they are opposed to the choice of candidates the Bungoma senator has endorsed for various seats in the county.
"Enough is enough. We will no longer support Ford Kenya. We have been used for long but only Moses benefits," Fred Wetang'ula said.
Its a big political blow to Wetangula because his brother has been the man in charge of all his political activities since 1992.
Isaac Wanjekeche, a political commentator, said Fred’s exist from his brother's camp will cost the legislator.
"Anybody who understands Bungoma and Wetang'ula's politics understands the role his young brother Fred has been playing," he said.
"He was the man in charge of his operations and by crossing over, he complicates matters for the Senator in his home turf," he added.
Fred said his rebellion stemmed from the chaotic Ford Kenya nominations.
"The man has been using us to fight his wars only to end up rewarding the highest bidders. We are going to expose him."
