Makueni woman representative Rose Museo has assured the Kamba community that Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka’s name will be on the presidential ballot in 2022.
Museo argues that time for Kalonzo's presidency is ripe, adding that the former Vice President is ready to succeed President Uhuru Kenyatta in 2022.
Speaking to journalist's at Parliament Buildings in Nairobi on Wednesday, Museo said nothing is going to stop them from fronting Kalonzo’s 2022 presidential bid.
She said as Wiper politicians and Kamba leaders, they will campaign for Kalonzo’s ticket whether on NASA or Wiper ticket when time comes.
Museo said Kalonzo has been patient enough, adding that 2022 is his time to ascend to power.
“We are going to fight for Kalonzo’s 2022 presidential bid in 2022 because we believe he has the experience and qualities for the top seat,” she said.
Museo asked Kamba leaders and locals to unite and back Kalonzo’s bid.
She said the country needs Kalonzo’s leadership to address its economic, social and political challenges.
The Makueni woman representative urged President Kenyatta to endorse Kalonzo for the top seat.
Kalonzo signed an agreement with ODM leader Raila Odinga that is to see him fly the NASA presidential ticket in 2022.
Political analsysts however argues that Raila could trash the agreement since he did not win in last year's presidential polls.
A section of ODM politicians have openly stated that Raila will be on the ballot in 2022.
Pressure has been mounting on Kalonzo to ditch NASA if he is to revive and keep alive his 2022 presidential bid.
Last week meeting between President Uhuru Kenyatta and NASA leader seems to have complicated Kalonzo's 2022 presidential bid.
On Wednesday, Kalonzo said that he is seeking audience with President Uhuru Kenyatta after the president met NASA leader last week.
Uhuru's meeting with Raila continues to elicit reactions across the political divide as politicians pledge to work together for unity.
Kalonzo's Party meets on Friday to discuss on his 2022 bid and decide on its future in the NASA coalition.
