We Owe You Nothing, ODM Tells Kalonzo over Alleged 2022 Pact with Raila
ODM party has rubbished claims that Raila Odinga and Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka have signed a political pact.
Kalonzo in an interview with Sunday Nation noted that he had entered into an agreement with Odinga ahead of the 2022 presidential election.
But ODM through secretary-general Edwin Sifuna trashed the claim, saying its leader has not signed such an agreement with Muyoka, who he described as a traitor.
“We know that Kalonzo tried to push Raila to commit to supporting him in 2022 as part of the NASA pact and as a party, we flatly rejected that demand. The so-called deal therefore only exists in Kalonzo’s wild dreams,” Sifuna stated in a statement sent to the press on Sunday.
“We are however not surprised that Kalonzo is making those claims. It is typical of Mr. Kalonzo’s character as a two-faced treacherous character who is always whining while seeking to reap where he did not sow. It is a continuation of his ‘kati kati’ brand of politics.”
He added: “As a party, we challenge Kalonzo to man up, stop whining and be able to stand up for something for once. ODM and its leader Raila Odinga owe Kalonzo nothing. As a party, we have moved on and we are not planning our politics around Kalonzo.”
