Is Slay Queen Ford Kenya Right to Demand For Funds From Sponsor ODM?

The apparent Divorce in NASA is getting noisy and messy just as it was predicted by Ford Kenya Party Leader Moses Wetangula. The apparent noise that is taking center stage in the National Super Alliance Coalition is due to financial wars with other parties feeling that ODM is arm twisting them when it comes to the sharing of the political parties fund.

One Part that has come out to strongly oppose ODM for it’s apparent greed is Ford Kenya.

According FORD Kenya Party leader Moses Wetangula, all NASA affiliate parties should get their fair share of the funds following their decision to stop monthly contributions to the coalition’s secretariat.

Wetangula has suggested that ODM is behaving like a gigolo while maintaining that all parties within NASA will get their financial allocation.

“Odm behaving like a gigolo that’s suffering from chronic syphilis! Queens or Kings, Wiper, Ford Kenya & Anc must and will get their share of the PPF. Those wailing louder than the bereaved were nowhere when we were staking out our all for Raila. “Bure kabisa!” said Wetangula in a tweet.

Wetang’ula was reacting to ODM secretary general Edwin Sifuna’s claim that Ford Kenya was behaving like a slay queen in its quest for a share of the political parties’ funds.

In a hard tackle against partners staking a claim to the Political Parties Fund, ODM yesterday said it owes ‘no other party any money’.

“Ford Kenya is a like a slay queen insulting the spouse and then expecting to be sent rent. ODM will not give Ford Kenya even a penny. Whatever they contributed to the NASA coalition has been negated by their propaganda and slaying [sinc] with Deputy President William Ruto,” said ODM secretary general Edwin Sifuna

Sifuna seemingly drew his stand from the provisions of the Political Parties Act, 2011 on the qualification and distribution of the Fund.

The Act states that a party that does not secure at least three per cent of the total number of votes at the preceding General Elections is not entitled to funding.

The Act also says a party will not benefit from the Political Parties Fund if it does not have twenty elected members of the National Assembly, three elected members of the senate, three elected members who are governors; and 40 members of county assemblies.

Wetang’ula is the only Ford Kenya member in the Senate, his party has only 12 Mps and just two governors.

Should Ford Kenya be entitled to the Political Party’s Funds from NASA?
