Monday, July 29, 2024 - Wiper Democratic Movement party leader, Kalonzo Musyoka, has ordered his Members of Parliament to reject Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) members nominated to the cabinet by President William Ruto.
Speaking on Sunday during a church service in
Mwingi North, Kalonzo said that ODM had announced that the four nominated
Cabinet Ministers were joining President William Ruto’s government in their
individual capacities.
“I have given directions as the party leader
to Wiper Members of Parliament that the names of the four people when brought
to parliament for vetting, Wiper members vote No,” he directed.
The former vice president also asked ODM MPs
to follow suit if their four members were indeed appointed to the cabinet
against party wishes.
“If the ODM MPs will vote ‘yes’ to accept the
CSs, then Kenyans will believe that they were lied to,” Kalonzo remarked.
President Ruto on Wednesday nominated four key
members of the Orange Democratic Movement as part of his new broad-based
cabinet.
The four are Hassan Joho(Ministry of Mining,
Blue Economy), Wycliffe Oparanya (Cooperatives and MSME Development), John
Mbadi (National Treasury), and Opiyo Wandayi (Energy and Petroleum).
