If Raila doesn’t choose me as his running mate, Dp Ruto will be the beneficiary: Kalonzo reveals

If Raila Odinga does not nominate him as a co-candidate for the Azimio la Umoja, Wiper party leader Kalonzo Musyoka says he will start considering his options.

Kalonzo said in an interview on Monday that if Raila did not nominate him as his deputy, all the votes cast would go to Vice President William Ruto.

“If I am not elected, it is clear that all the votes I deserve can follow Ruto’s direction. Is that what they want? It is obvious,” Kalonzo said, quoted by Standard.

Kalonzo also claimed that some forces within the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) and the Declaration coalition were working to undermine Raila’s bid for the presidency, which is why they opposed his candidacy.

“Either the demons are walking among them or they do not want him to be president. In fact, as soon as they do not elect me, it will prove to me that some people do not want Raila to be president,” Kalonzo said. .

The Wiper leader, who did not hesitate to say he did not support DP Ruto, said that if he was not elected as a running mate and his supporters advised him to leave the camp, he would have to obey.

“They are thieves … Kenya is over, but when things get tough and my people tell me no what should I do? Maybe I will tell them to stick and support Raila, but they will ask me if I am crazy,” Kalonzo said. sema.

Kalonzo recently expressed his belief that he was the clear choice of Raila’s running mate, but also expressed his displeasure with the emergence of ongoing interviews with the Resident Co-candidate, which he described as humiliating.

Meanwhile, he is expected to appear before the Declaration nomination panel on Tuesday, May 10 for an interview.
