Just when you thought enough shocking remarks have been delivered in wiper party leader Kalonzo Musyoka’s 2022 political direction more news pour in.
After being snubbed by Ukambani political giants in his big meeting for the unity of the region, our Nairobi governor Mike Sonko has thrown his weight behind former vice resident Kalonzo.
During a Wiper Party convention in Matungulu in Machakos County, Sonko revealed that he will campaign for Kalonzo come 2022.
“I do not need to vie for the presidency. What I want to do is to help Musyoka, our elder brother move forward, to help you until you retire or you become old,” Sonko told the former VP.
Sonko also went ahead to commit his community mobilisation group, Sonko Rescue Team, to campaign for Musyoka.
He castigated Governors Kivutha Kibwana (Makueni), Alfred Mutua (Machakos) and Charity Ngilu (Kitui) for instigating disunity in the Eastern region.
“Unity is very important in any community. When Raila went to Nyanza with the president, I saw all Nyanza governors, MPs and MCAs,” Sonko noted.
Kalonzo has since shocked many after he rooted for an expanded Executive in the Constitutional review process.
The Wiper leader dropped hints saying: “Tuungane, with other communities, tumsaidie ndugu Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta. Kama atasema after the new Constitution tumeiunda na mimi nataka kuendelea mbele ntamwambia nitakusupport (Let’s come together with other communities and help our brother Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta. If he says after the new Constitution that he wants to proceed I will support him).”
Do you think Sonko will be impactful in Kalonzo’s presidential race?
