ANC leader Musalia Mudavadi has reveled Jubilee leaders offered him a job in government to pave way for his departure in the opposition NASA coalition.
Mudavadi during an interview on KTN television said he is not in rush to work in government but his focus is to institute reforms that will propel the country to the next level of development.
“It’s not in the cards nor table, I am a founder member of NASA, and it’s a household name whose values I believe in. If there are any issues, we will solve them within NASA,” the former Sabatia MP said revealing that he would be on the ballot come 2022.
“My ambitions remain; I have never denied that I want to serve this country as the President of the People of Kenya. If they want me to do so, that can be actualized in a free and fair electoral process.”
He spoke less than a week after opposition leader Raila Odinga revealed that the Jubilee administration was planning to ditch out Cabinet posts to Mudavadi and Ford Kenya leader Moses Wetangula in a bid to weaken the opposition.
On December 24, Mudavadi accused the Jubilee regime of trying to silence him adding that he will not relent in his fight for electoral justice.
“Some leaders in Jubilee are pleading with me to abandon the reform train. That I should calm down; let them get on the gravy train. They don’t know what steel I am made from. This is my New Year message to them; let me assure you I cannot jump off this electoral justice reform train into an empty cattle carriage,” Mudavadi said.
“Electoral reform is not for Raila or Mudavadi. It is for posterity. It is for all Kenyans. Every vote must count. Elections must stop being a ritual of theft.”
He said elections must stop being a conspiracy of one, two or three tribes to steal from others.
“Every Kenyan must have an opportunity to vote and to win or lose fairly. Kenya is not a monarch,” he said.
