The Senator further alleged that DAP-K chairman, Wafula Wamunyinyi was paid by Raila to cause trouble in FORD Kenya while he was still a member.  

Nairobi Senator Johnson Sakaja has linked Democratic Action Party of Kenya (DAP-K) to Raila Odinga-led Orange Democratic Movement (ODM). 

Speaking in an interview with The Star, Sakaja claimed that DAP-K was being bankrolled by ODM to frustrate Amani National Congress (ANC) boss Musalia Mudavadi's presidential bid.

The Senator further alleged that DAP-K chairman, Wafula Wamunyinyi was paid by Raila to cause trouble in FORD Kenya while he was still a member.   

"DAP-K is just an ODM in a blue jacket. It is being bankrolled by them and that’s where the utapeli is. If you look at the chairman, Wafula Wamunyinyi, he was of course being paid by Raila to create problems in Ford Kenya against his coalition partner in NASA," Sakaja said.

Sakaja also alleged of a plot by ODM to cause dissonance in ANC, further telling off Azimio La Umoja over its past mockery of Mudavadi. 

“It is obvious now. Some people were being paid to create discord in ANC, we have evidence. They are trying to play down the influence of Musalia

"They said in Bukhungu that he is inconsequential; why are they still talking about him after the earthquake’? If he is inconsequential, why are they taking politicians from the region to the statehouse," he added. 

This comes two weeks after Sakaja hit out at leaders who have warned Mudavadi against working with the country's second in command, noting that there was no enmity in politics

"As we move, people should be ready to see a lot of big changes. There are no bridges that are burnt, there are no doors that are closed

"I am not a fair-weather friend, that I am supporting him only if he stands alone. Of course, that will be my ideal situation, but I will trust his judgement and choice," he said.
