Wednesday, January 31, 2024 - Wiper Party Leader Kalonzo Musyoka left Kenyans talking yesterday after he failed to attend the Executive Summit of the Azimio One Kenya Coalition Party led by former Prime Minister Raila Odinga.
Addressing the media after the
meeting, DAP-K Party Leader Eugene Wamalwa disclosed that Kalonzo had other
engagements in South Sudan and could not attend the meeting.
Wamalwa noted that Kalonzo sent
his apology and gave his blessing on the meeting to go on without his presence.
“Absent with apology was the
Honorable Stephen Kalonzo Musyoka who is currently in Sudan for other
engagements but who spoke to our leader this morning and sent his apologies and
the meeting went on with his blessing and his views were incorporated,” Wamalwa
stated.
The meeting was attended by
Raila Odinga, Martha Karua, Eugene Wamalwa Mwangi Wa Iria, Wycliffe Oparanya,
Peter Munya, Jeremiah Kioni, Nderitu Murithi, George Wajackoyah, and Opiyo
Wandayi.
Raila dismissed reports that the
opposition coalition was splitting after leaders fell out.
“There has been a lot of
speculation in the media that Azimio is splitting and convening meetings which
have not been held that is all trash media propaganda,” Raila stated.
Karua, who also read the
coalition’s statement, noted that they had a robust discussion and agreed on
different strategies and tactical positions.
“Azimio remains one and is here
to stay committed to shared values that include accountability, integrity,
public participation, good governance, respect for the rule of law, social
justice, and non-discrimination,” Karua stated.
The Narc Kenya boss mentioned
that the Azimio coalition will strengthen its constituent parties through
member recruitment drives, delegates conferences, and PG and NEC meetings.
