Kalonzo: I Should Not Be Required to Apply to Be Raila’s Running Mate
Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka insists that he is the most suitable running mate candidate for the Azimio-One Kenya coalition presidential flagbearer Raila Odinga.
This comes after the coalition party’s council, which is chaired by President Kenyatta, on Wednesday appointed a seven-member advisory panel to assist and advise Odinga to pick his running mate. The team is expected to submit the name (s) of the Deputy President nominee on or before May 10th.
In an interview with KTN News on Thursday, Musyoka said he should not be asked to apply for the running mate position, adding that it is obvious he is the best choice for the post.
"If we were to tell each other the truth and everyone in our team knows the right thing to do. I do not understand why anyone would ask me to apply for the position of running mate. Did Raila apply to be the flag bearer?" he posed.
Musyoka warned that Raila will lose a majority of the votes from the Ukambani region if he fails to pick him as his running mate.
"Truth be told, it will be difficult to access the votes in Ukambani," he told KTN.
He stated that his ticket with Odinga is the surest way for the Azimio-One Kenya outfit to clinch the presidency on August 9th, adding that they won in previous elections but they were rigged out.
"Whenever Raila and I run together, we can't lose any election. I keep on saying that in 2013 we won and ended up not to win. Again in 2017, we won according to us but again we didn't win. Now in 2022, I have said that I will support my brother Raila and obviously we will win," he said.

How many votes did you bring on the table for Raila to win
Mundu Nyumba; Arthur wa Ndungu. Ni ki Kiuru wee!!! How many Times have you Voted for Raila? None!!!🤯
Based on the way Kalonzo has been pressuring Raila lately, I am beginning to suspect he might be a Ruto mole.
This man is very selfish. I guess at 68 he only waiting to go to the grave and it would be nice to accomplish a selfish act before he exits. Kolonzo does not think about Kenyans one bit. Just look at what he did to Mombasa putting Sonko to run for the governor. These crooks have sanatized corruption to the worst levels. It is all a out what is in it for the old gizzard.
Melon forget it. You lost it that day that you did not show up in bonoko swearing in ceremony in Uhuru Park.
Shut up Water Melon Boy.
@ A GIRL TOTO: Sasa mbona unatusi Baba Mutheu hivyo?
Yep! He's Green🤢 today; Red🤡 tonight; and White🤯 tomorrow.
This is the most useless idiot in the universe. He is just embarrassing himself like a little kid. Not I understand why Kibaki did not have anything to do with him, and didn’t want him to succeed him. He is behaving like he has lost his damn mind. Hope Raila does not pick him up to be his deputy.
Very entitled Mr Water Melon. You do have a lot of nonsense below your damn belt. This man is depressed and he is playing out his silliness in the public gallery.
At what age does kalonzo start realizing that he is getting simile? He is making the Kamba community look stupid for following a mentally incapable guy.
Very entitled indeed Mr Watermelon! Yes indeed! What a foolish state of mind. This dude is a Ruto mole and should be completely ignored.
LISTEN TO THE MOST STUPID FOOLISH MAN IN TOWN.WHO LISTENS TO YOUR FOOLISHNESS AS YOU SAID IT YOURSELF.BURE KABISA
Kameleon Kameleon only talks, I I I I BS
Kalonzo is Kenya's clown #1. He is a circus and no one in Kenya including Ukambani takes him serious. He is a relic of the past
Does this guy look serious in his utterances? RAO needs to stay clear from Kalonzo’s stupidity. He cannot be trusted and he thinks Kenyans are very stupid to figure him out.
Wauh! Why the insults? You lost my Azimio vote..my vote for Baba Azimio imezima na imezama..thats how RAO looses vote because of such careless comments 🙄 Jaluos be careful. RAO is just another candidate. He is not guaranteed presidency yet fools!
This is all bullshit. a presidential candidate knows who she/he want to walk with the moment he/she decides to stand . Now Raila is fooling the entire nation that it is the committee which decided. He is a COWARD how can a COWARD govern a nation will he be appointing committees to voteo on his decisions . Give us a break and Kalonzo what is his qualification a degree in running mate study ? they are all trash and should be put in the bin
Kalonzo may Not be Corrupt like Ruto and the Rest. But he is very Creepy. And it's OK so long as it's Not at TAXpayers' Xpense.
Cartoon character is how Kalonzo can be described....they need to pick him up, because he doesn't seem to have a sense of reality.
No! You don’t reward a cry baby! They need to commit him to Mathare hospital for psychotic evaluations. Something is not mentally right with kalonzo.
