Ruto’s ally praises Azimio eliciting debate over his remarks
2 min readRuto’s ally praises Azimio eliciting debate over his remarks where he heaped praise on the rival camp, the Azimio coalition.
The Service Party leader Mwangi Kiunjuri has elicited debate over his remarks where he praised Raila’s coalition, the Azimio la Umoja coalition.
Speaking during a rally in Nyandarua county on Sunday, June 12, Mwangi Kiunjuri who’s one of the Kenya Kwanza principals urged his colleagues in the coalition to emulate Azimio’s planning style.
He noted that the openness had made the Raila-Odinga-faction grassroots level amass massive popularity.
“In our coalition of Kenya Kwanza, you notice we are always fighting each other, but the other side in Azimio – they have planned their government. They know who will be who and what everyone. However, in Kenya Kwanza even insiders like myself are not aware of what is happening,” he said.
Surprisingly, Kiunjuri went on to refer to Azimio as his coalition, urging Nyandarua residents to support their bid in what was viewed as a slip of the tongue.
The statement raised eyebrows from TSP politicians who appeared stunned at the remarks.
“As leaders of the country within Azimio, we have decided that Mt Kenya will elect the best leaders across all counties including Nyandarua, Laikipia, and Meru. This is because those leaders will vouch for our interests in parliament.”
“The leaders of the mountain need to be keen as we have alienated ourselves. If you look closely, other people have secured their interests in their specific region while we fight amongst ourselves. When we fight, the others take advantage and divide the wealth of this country,” he stated.
