Mudavadi calls out Raila over secession remark adding that Kenya cannot have two concurrent governments
Mudavadi calls out Raila over secession remark adding that Kenya cannot have two concurrent governments.
On Monday, April 17, Azimo Leader Raila Odinga came under fire from Prime Cabinet Secretary (CS) Musalia Mudavadi over secessionist threats made by some Azimo leaders at a gathering in Kamukunji.
Mudavadi while speaking at a press conference alongside Mombasa Governor Abdulswamad Sheriff called the comments dangerous in light of the crisis in Sudan.
He argued that Kenya cannot have two concurrent governments and urged the public to disregard the narrative.
“Why make such reckless statements when you can clearly see that there is conflict in Sudan which has already flared?” Mudavadi posed.
The Prime CS reckoned that he expected former Prime Minister Raila Odinga to take more responsibility over remarks made by himself and those around him.
“As an adult who has a family and had an opportunity to be in a very high office and you want to cheat Kenyans. These are the kinds of things that we ask our people to move away from,” he stated.
During the Kamukunji rally, Embakasi East Member of Parliament (MP) Babu Owino hinted that Odinga should consider a coup or running a parallel government and lead his followers to self-rule.
“If George Washington did it in America, Napoleon did it in France, Stalin in Russia, Tunisians did it in Tunisia and Sudanese are doing it Sudan, Baba you can do it in Kenya,” Owino stated.

Mudavadi further condemned Odinga for playing saint and criticizing the government for delaying salaries for civil servants yet he was part of the signatories to the commitments
“Some of the people shouting very loudly in the streets are part and parcel of the signatures in the commitments I am talking about,” he disclosed.
The Prime CS indicated that in one of the financial commitments, Kenya is required to pay Ksh40 billion every January and deposit the same amount in July.
He called on all leaders to turn away from politics and afford the Kenya Kwanza government time to deliver on its promises.
