A section of Wiper leaders have pointed an accusing finger at Machakos Senator Johnson Muthama for backing interests of foreign parties at the expense of Wiper.
Led by MPs Robert Mbui (Kathiani), Patrick Makau (Mavoko), Peter Mathuki (EALA) and Machakos woman representative Susan Musyoka have expressed their disatisfaction over recent claims by the Senator that the late Kwale Senator Boy Juma Boy told him that Coalition for Reforms and Democracy (Cord) is the best bet for the opposition as its seeks to dethrone President Uhuru Kenyatta and his Deputy William Ruto during the next general elections.
“Senator Muthama went to Kwale during the burial of Kwale Senator Boy Juma Boy and said that the deceased wanted Raila to become the flagbearer of NASA, yet we had sent him to that committee to represent the interests of Wiper,” Mbui said.
On his part, Mathuki said that Muthama has been representing the interests of other parties and not Wiper hence he should be ejected from the committee as soon as possible.
The Senator’s stand on who should be the National Super Alliance (NASA) flag bearer has not only caused a storm in Ukambani but also other regions including Western that expects one of their own to rise to power.
