Published on November 5, 2019, ANC leader Musalia Mudavadi has taken issue with Raila Odinga's new alliance with governors Waiguru, Kibwana, and Mutua, saying they are seeking protection from the ODM leader.
According to Mudavadi, some of the governors are already being investigated by the Directorate of Criminal Investigations and the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) for misappropriating county government resources.
Speaking in Kibra, Mudavadi said, 'I saw many governors here. Most of those governors have misappropriated county government resources and have their files at the DCI and EACC. They are seeking for protection from him (Raila) against the ongoing investigations against them.'
Mudavadi further criticized Opposition MPs for abandoning their role in Parliament and turning into cheerleaders, saying it's difficult to differentiate between ODM's John Mbadi and Jubilee's Aden Duale.
At least 24 candidates will battle it out to clinch the parliamentary seat left vacant following the death of Ken Okoth.
