Aspirants from UDA are warned from associating with me or Kabogo - Moses Kuria. 

Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria has opened up about his troubles with UDA in the Kenya Kwanza Alliance. 

Speaking during an interview on Citizen TV on Sunday, Kuria said that he did not have a problem with Rigathi Gachagua as a person but with the UDA party. 

According to the legislator, UDA wants to eclipse all other parties in the Mt Kenya region like Chama Cha Kazi (CCK) and Tujibebe. 

"I don't want to blame Rigathi Gachagua. What I see is a corporate UDA policy that wants to eclipse other parties from the Mt. Kenya region. If it's coming through Rigathi Gachagua, he is just an agent of a corporate policy. 

"This is a fundamental institutional issue with UDA vs our parties. It's about the coalition as a whole and we didn't sign an agreement with UDA or William Ruto as a person but as eleven parties," he stated. 

Kuria added, "I have a complaint against UDA. I am very certain that Rigathi Gachagua is under instructions. If Rigathi is promoting UDA, I think it's a Kenya Kwanza issue."

Kuria mentioned that other parties like ANC and FORD Kenya were being given better treatment in the coalition as compared to those from Mt. Kenya region.  

"When it comes to planning meetings in Mt. Kenya region, they are held exclusively by UDA and we are locked out, for me it is sad and strange. 

"To make matters worse aspirants from UDA are warned from associating with me or William Kabogo. We are wondering whether it is Kenya Kwanza when it comes to the rest of the country and but when it comes to the Mt. Kenya region it's a UDA affair. We find this to be dishonest and politics of deceit and conmanship," Kuria said.
