Alfred Mutua: Raila is being fooled in Azimio la Umoja

by Enock Ndayala

Maendeleo Chap Chap (MCC) Party leader Alfred Mutua has sensationally claimed that former Prime Minister Raila Odinga is being played in the Azimio la Umoja Coalition.

Speaking during the MCC Aspirants meeting at KICC on Thursday, April 7, Mutua said the recent unfolding of events in the Azimio has seen him lose faith in Azimio One Kenya Alliance.

“I am in Azimio because of Raila, but it’s becoming very obvious that for the last several days, Raila to me is being played and the way things have been organized,” Alfred Mutua said.

According to Mutua, the Azimio la Umoja had promised that all the affiliate political parties had agreed to work as a team to ensure the ODM leader emerges victorious in this year’s General Election, something that is currently not working out.

“We went into Azimio believing that Raila was the best candidate; we endorsed him as the best candidate and we had been promised that political parties will be a structure of participation within the political party machinery, but we have not seen this and so we have seen the game being played in that are making us very very uncomfortable,” he said.

It is understood that this is not the first time leaders are claiming that President Uhuru Kenyatta might not be genuine in his highly publicized endorsement of Raila Odinga’s fifth presidential ambitions.

A few months ago, Kivumbi.co.ke reported that former Kakamega senator Boni Khalwale claimed that the ODM leader might be shortchanged in President Uhuru Kenyatta’s succession politics.

“What we are seeing is a choreographed strategy whereby a clear script has been written to keep Raila running in circles,” Khalwale said.
