Mudavadi Breaks Silence After Reports That He is Sick

Amani National Congress (ANC) party leader Musalia Mudavadi has dismissed reports that he is ailing.

The One Kenya Alliance (OKA) principal has not been seen in public since the end of last month, triggering rumors that he was sick.

Speculation about his health started when he skipped last week’s Ford Kenya National Delegates Conference, which was attended by other OKA principals. He was represented by Kakamega Senator Cleophas Malala.

Speaking to Nation on Tuesday, Mudavadi confirmed he is in good health, and Kenyans should not be worried. He indicated that he has been away from the public scene but he will come back soon.

“I’m very fine. Let people not be anxious. I’m very strong. In a few days, you will see me. There is no problem,” he told the local daily.

Mudavadi, who is eying the presidency in 2022, was last seen on October 31st in Githurai, where he addressed a public rally in the company of other OKA leaders Kalonzo Musyoka, Gideon Moi, and Moses Wetang’ula.
