ODM National Chairperson Gladys Wanga has fired back at Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka after he accused Azimio leader Raila Odinga of betrayal for signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with President William Ruto.
Speaking in Homa Bay on Saturday, March 8, Wanga dismissed claims, instead terming Raila’s move a step toward national unity.
“We immensely support Raila Odinga and President Ruto’s efforts to unite the country so that all citizens can benefit. I have seen those saying this is betrayal; how can unity be betrayal?” she posed.
Wanga who also serves as ODM National Chairperson defended Raila’s decision, emphasizing that it was made in the best interest of the country.
“Yesterday, Raila gave us the lead and told us to enter into the broad-based government and support President Ruto’s administration, and this was not for selfish reasons but for the unity of Kenyans,” she added.
Speaking at the People Dialogue Festival on Friday, March 7, Kalonzo warned that UDA and ODM would still be rejected by Kenyans owing to the policies of the Kenya Kwanza administration.

He added that it would be a betrayal if Raila fails to push for the government to compensate Kenyans who were killed and injured during the Finance Bill protests in 2023 and 2024.
“If out of what they are signing at KICC, they do not come with a formula on how to address the injustice meted on Kenyans on June 25 and 2023 that will be betrayal in the city. Handshake or no handshake, Ruto must go,” he stated.
Speaking during the same event, DAP-K Party leader Eugene Wamalwa also warned that Raila would be judged harshly, given that he had left his push to fight for Kenyans in favour of a pact with Ruto.
“We choose to stand on the side of Gen Z and the people of Kenya. For those who have left the opposition to join the government, history is a harsh judge. May history judge them,” he remarked.
