Wiper party warned the five saying Kalonzo is not ready to play games with them

After days of pull and push between Raila Odinga's Azimio la Umoja cam and Kalonzo Musyoka's led One Kenya Alliance outfit, the Wiper party has finally come out to name a number of leaders to be blamed for catalyzing the fallouts.

Speaking on Tuesday when Wiper fronted former Kibwezi MP Prof. Philip Kaloki as businessman Richard Ngatia's running mate for Nairobi gubernatorial seat, Wiper's Kitui Senator Enoch Wambua accused five people in Azimio of allegedly derailing the coalition's efforts to come together.

According to Senator Wambua, the three Ukambani region governors, Raila Odinga's spokesperson, and former Jubilee Party Secretary-General Raphael Tuju are to be blamed for the current tribulations facing the Azimio-One Kenya Alliance outfit.

"Maybe the problem is not even the president, maybe not even Raila Odinga. The problem lies beneath here. there are people causing problems down here. I urge Kalonzo to deal with Uhuru, Raila and leave these other people to us. I will say without fear that the problem lies between four people and one who was recently added.

The problem is with Alfred Mutua (Machakos Governor), the second is Kivutha Kibwana (Makueni), and Charity Ngilu (Kitui).

The fourth person is Professor Makau Mutua who speaks for Raila and now Raphael Tuju has gotten himself in as well" stated Wambua.

The Wiper senator warned the five saying Kalonzo is not ready to play games with them.

"This is a serious business. They should stop being the people to stand in the way of a journey we are walking to make Kalonzo Musyoka the 6th president in Kenya. That journey has started and it will not stop" added Wambua.

He said they will never allow the five to give Kalonzo the leftovers in Azimio, adding that are ready to shift out if they feel their concerns are addressed as it is supposed to.

Wambua warned saying they will not allow one person to just appoint the executive director of the secretariat when Raila, Uhuru, and Kalonzo were the major principals in the coalition.

He said it is the same people who overturned things after the three principals had agreed on the number of Coalition Management Council to be seven and later expanded it to twelve people.

This comes after a leaked letter addressed to the Registrar of Political Parties Anne Nderitu.

In the letter, the Wiper party protested the Azimio la Umoja One Kenya coalition party agreement submitted on April 9, saying it was doctored without the consent of all parties.
