Malala backs Natembeya's Tawe Movement calling for the exit of Wetang'ula and Mudavadi from politics

United Democratic Alliance (UDA) Party Secretary General Cleophas Malala has backed up Trans Nzoia governor George Natembeya’s Tawe Movement.

Speaking in Kakamega, Malala said he fully supports the agenda spearheaded by Natembeya, which calls for Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi and National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang’ula to retire from politics.

Malala asked Natembeya to include former Kakamega governor Wycliffe Oparanya and former Defense Cabinet Secretary Eugene Wamalwa to the movement’s agenda.

“I fully support your agenda in Trans Nzoia; I have seen you push Wetang’ula and Mudavadi to go home. However, the list is not full; even Oparanya and Eugene should go home and rest,” Malala said.

Natembeya accused Mudavadi and Wetang’ula of failing to bring Western development despite being in government for decades.

He further said the two leaders have no new tricks for leading the people of Mulembe and should let new energy lead the people.

In addition to calling for Oparanya’s retirement from politics, Malala also criticized Oparanya’s plan to run for Kakamega senator in 2027.

Malala said it was time for him to rest from politics, as he has been in power since the days of Ford Asili.

“I’m hearing that in 2027, Oparanya wants to be the senator of Kakamega.

This is a joke. You have been in power since 1992 in Ford Asili. No, go home and rest, Oparanya,” he said.
