A screenshot of a tweet of the outgoing Kitui Senator David Musila denying links with Jubilee.The Wiper Democratic Movement Kenya (WDM-K) has dismissed outgoing Kitui Senator David Musila and outgoing Mwingi North MP Joe Mutambu.This is after they declared full support for President Uhuru Kenyatta's Jubilee government, after it won another five-year term, in the just concluded August 8 polls.Wiper whose leader is the NASA deputy presidential candidate Kalonzo Musyoka, said Musila was a loser, in the Kitui gubernatorial race, after Narc Party leader Charity Ngilu trounced him.Musila vied as an Independent Candidate after cutting ties with Wiper during nominations in April, only to come second, and later conceding defeat.According to Wiper, the people of Ukambani retired the former Wiper party chairman, and so should retire peacefully without seeking avenues to solicit jobs from the Jubilee government.In a short communication, Wiper said Musila's declaration would not affect Kalonzo's support base, since Kalonzo still enjoys massive support from the region."It's cheap politics for David Musila to solicit job from Jubilee by trying to undermine our party leader. Ukambani retired you," said WPDM-K, Monday.In a press briefing at Parliament buildings on Monday, Musila said Ukambani would no longer remain in the Opposition, especially after it lost in this year's election.In June this year, Musila dismissed possible support for Jubilee Party, saying he would never work with it.
