Nominated Member of Parliament Godfrey Osotsi has claimed Kakamega senator Cleophas Malala is secretly working with Deputy President William Ruto.
While telling ANC party leader Musalia Mudavadi to be cautious of some politicians riding on his popularity, Osotsi said Malala spends the day with Mudavadi and when night comes, he shifts his allegiance to the hustler’s camp.
“They pretend to defend you, they attack Raila Odinga, but in reality, they are not with you. They are with you during the day but when the night comes they shift allegiance to (William) Ruto,” Osotsi said.
According to the former ANC Secretary General, the recent push by Kakamega Senator to have Mudavadi on the ballot for the 2022 presidency is a well-planned scheme aimed at advancing William Ruto’s agenda.
He argues that William Ruto is using Malala to push Mudavadi to vie for the country’s top seat not to win but to destroy the Mulembe votes which will disadvantage Raila Odinga, who is considered to be William Ruto’s most formidable competitor.
He revealed that Malala knows very well that Mudavadi cannot win the 2022 presidential race but he is pushing him not to support someone else who can easily succeed retiring president Uhuru Kenyatta.
“They know you cannot win but for their own expediency, they have to use you,” Osotsi told Mudavadi as quoted by Tuko.co.ke.
The lawmaker further asked Mudavadi to be vigilant with Malala who want to use him and dump him.
He claimed that the Kakamega Senator know that Mudavadi would not have a chance in the presidential race but still vow to charge him up for his own political gains.
“Musalia Mudavadi, you are a leader we respect. You are a leader who can become Kenya’s president. But take time to vet those around you,
“They claim to help you but they are not. These people are moles working for other people. They sit with you in boardrooms but they are working for other people,” Osotsi said.
