In a statement to West fm on Saturday, Simiyu said that Ford-Kenya had set out to fulfill its agenda only forgetting that ODM and Wiper parties are partners with Ford-Kenya in Cord. 

"Ford-Kenya has sidelined both ODM and Wiper parties on all political matters in Trans Nzoia County. Today, Ford-Kenya operates on its own neglecting both ODM and Wiper parties which are her sisters in Cord coalition," said Simiyu. 

Simiyu further accused Trans Nzoia County Governor Patrick Khaemba of failing to smoothen operation between the three parties. 

According to Simiyu, Governor Khaemba was busy fulfilling Ford-Kenya agendas while forgetting to include both ODM and Wiper on political issues affecting Cord in the county. 

"The governor has also been showing us that he is leaning on one side. This county is a Cord zone and if Ford-Kenya continues to work on its own, then the coalition may fail to make it in this year's elections," added Simiyu. 

He added that Ford-Kenya has been given a three-month period to sort out issues with ODM and Wiper or else different directives taken against the party.
