NASA leaders seem to speak in one voice but all is not well in the alliance.
The team that former Prime Minister Raila Odinga and Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka formed is no longer strong.
With the likes of Senator Moses Wetangula and ANC leader Musalia Mudavadi walking in the wilderness, there is no way one can say NASA is intact.
The Ukambani political kingpin was hoping that Raila surrenders and leaves the team for him so as to carry the 'Presidential trophy' before midday.
The leaders, however, are now speaking in different voices.
Each of the leaders is speaking as an independent politician.
The political ground has been leveled.
Kalonzo is expected to go an extra mile to form his formidable team if at all he wants to keep his presidential dream alive in the event of a breakup in the alliance.
The political storm at the Coast region has added more salt to the wound of NASA after a section of leaders sought refuge at Ruto’s doorstep following the handshake.
With the likes of Malindi MP Aisha Jumwa supporting Ruto, Kalonzo is likely not to get many votes from this region if the current political situation is anything we can go by.
