Monday, March 4, 2024 - Shrewd businessman, Jimmy Wanjigi, has said former Vice President Kalonzo Musyoka is not fit to succeed former Prime Minister Raila Odinga.
While drumming up support for
the Azimio leader for his African Union Commission chairmanship on Sunday,
Wanjigi said with Raila’s exit from the local political scene for the
continental assignment, Kalonzo should retire.
“Raila Odinga expressed his desire for the AU chairmanship and honestly, I believe he is the best man for the job, he will do this country and this content proud.
"Honestly, given his
many years of impactful leadership in this country and beyond, I can
confidently say he is the right man for the job,” he said.
According to Wanjigi, Kalonzo,
who is also the Wiper Democratic Movement party leader, does not fit the bill
to succeed Raila should the ODM boss clinch the AU seat.
In Wanjigi’s opinion, Kalonzo
should consider retiring from politics and fronting a youthful successor from
his party.
“Kalonzo Musyoka has hit the road positioning himself to take over leadership, but he should just take the cue from Raila and retire.
"He has nothing new to offer Kenyans and instead
should usher in a new leadership in his own Wiper party,” he said.
