Former Kitui Senator David Musila has come out to explain why he and Wiper Democratic Leader Kalonzo Musyoka fell out.
According to Hon Musila Kalonzos influence to Malombe’s Wiper Party nomination ticket made him part ways with the Wiper boss.
He further added saying that their political problems started after he had a breakfast meeting with Raila after which the former Vice President told his friends that he favoured the ODM Party for the top position
Thereafter, his position as the party’s chair was given to the late Francis Nyenze.
In addition he said, that during Wiper nominations, he felt humiliated because he was intimidated by the party’s nomination board ostensibly working under Kalonzo’s instructions.
According to their final tallying, he had won the nomination and he was waiting for the party to declare him as a winner.
He managed to garner 114,527 votes in the 2017 general elections while Malombe garnered 74,697 votes.
However, he goes on, things changed as the party held back the results and changed the numbers in favour of Julius Malombe (former Kitui Governor).
Musila adds that Kalonzo then instructed the party’s Election Board Chair to declare Malombe the winner.
It is at this point that he announced his resignation as the party’s chair and decided to vie for Kitui governorship as an independent candidate.
