Kalonzo: Why I Skipped the Swearing-in Ceremony

Kalonzo: Why I Skipped the Swearing-in Ceremony

Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka has explained the circumstances that led to him skipping his own swearing in as deputy people's president.

Speaking at his home in Karen, Nairobi on Tuesday night, Musyoka claimed that security details assigned to National Super Alliance (Nasa) principals were withdrawn hours to the swearing-in ceremony at Uhuru Park.

However, Kalonzo said the principals had agreed to converge at one point and proceed to swearing-in venue even without their bodyguards, but they were held hostage at a room in the city.

“I had a phone conversation with Raila Odinga, Musalia Mudavadi and Moses Wetangula and we agreed that we meet and then arrange how we will go to Uhuru Park since we did not have our bodyguards. We however did not do that so after myself, Wetang'ula and Mudavadi found ourselves locked in one room,” he said.

He continued: “That is what happened but as my brother Raila said, I am ready at an appropriate time to go and take the oath so that everyone may see that we did not get cold feet.”

“Many saw on the television stations how the officers who guard this place were recalled very early in the morning. Each of them was told that if they are seen there, they will be fired so I was left all alone,” he stated.

Musyoka called on his supporters not to lose faith in him, stating that he remains committed to Nasa's course.

“In short, I am ready to take oath at the right time. I would want Kenyans to know that we are people whose resolve is not easily shaken. I urge Kenyan online publishers to refrain from uploading content that risks disintegrating Nasa. We, as Nasa principals, are a close-knit family,” said the Wiper Party leader.

Raila Odinga arrived at Uhuru Park alone and took the controversial oath in front of thousands of supporters, who arrived at the venue as early as 6am.

Kalonzo, you want another assembly at Uhuru park so that you can be sworn in? Kiss my toes you flip floping coward. All the thousands of people at Uhuru park did not have security. Why do you need security? Also, which room were you locked in? Your bedroom by your wife? Stop lying; you have no oath balls. You should have taken oath so that we can hang you too.

Kalonzo should just confess that they were paid(bribeed) by majambazi Uhuru na Ruto as per Wetangula's demand to Codec two weeks ago.Hii ni kawainda ya wezi ndugu kati Yesu.I also wish to thank him for ditching muuaji Raila although it seems your political live seems to be buried now.

Kalonzo is to MAFUMBO as Raila is to VITENDAWILI. Note his riddle above in which he proclaims: " I am ready to take the oath at the right time". That is a loaded statement, so I rest my case.

Actually, Kalonzo fits well with the defination of KIDUDU MTU. This beautiful song encapsulates his spirit and utani wake na udaku bila vitendo! Guest1, enjoy whilst in your celebratory mood on Raila and in telling Kalonzo apotelee mbali! Hapo, hapo....nyonga hiyo kiuno na twende mbio hadi Canaan, in other words easy road to Kamiti!!

Kaloozer you better not go to Luo Nyanza. You abandoned fake Joshua on the operation table. Luos will not forgive you.

Raila is alone. He surrounded himself with people who can sell their wives for money. Kalonzo - Bure, Weta - Bure kabisa, Muda - bure kubbafu

Kalonzo thinks we are silly. Who doesn't know they have PA's and they move with a crowd of followers. What abt their cellphones they would have called for support from Raila. He has Hooligans ready for such assignments.

@cord principals, yes the three musketeers had their phones but switched them off wakawa mteja. But which self respecting person would present him/herself to be sworn in by conman miguna miguna. Thats why i salute Kalonzo. And where was Ndii the strategist? I did't see his contouered face there. Or did he also chicken out?

If you were locked in a room somewhere in the city, why didn’t you say that yesterday. I also believe if that was the truth, Raila would have said so even before taking the oath. Such a liar!!

How foolish do these NASA principals take us for? Really? Well Matiang' has already revealed what Kalooser and his friends were planning for the masses to satify their power hungry egos. Even that sijui explosives was staged . Wait till ukweli utokee and yes I'm sure Matiang' is not bluffing!

😂😂😂😂😂😂 according to the excuse you gave yesterday at your resident,you said you skipped the innaugration because some tv stations were switched off and you were not sure if they will turn off your cell phone causing you not to communicate with your colleagues.Be straight forward with your stories.
