Tuesday, November 5, 2024 – Homa Bay Town MP Peter Kaluma has mocked Wiper
Leader Kalonzo Musyoka and his DAP-K counterpart Eugene Wamalwa after they
announced their exit from Azimio following Raila Odinga’s betrayal.
In a statement, Kaluma
dismissed Kalonzo and Wamalwa as nonentities, asserting that the ODM party will form the next government without them.
“Imagine Eugine Wamalwa
and Kalonzo Musyoka and their parties have left Azimio! Which Azimio!
“How many
MPs do they have? ODM will form the next government,” Kaluma stated.
This comes hours after Wamalwa
announced that the DAP-K party was exiting the Azimio coalition, citing
betrayal from affiliate parties.
“As DAP, we can no longer
maintain a relationship with those who are not like-minded. Those aiding Ruto
in introducing more taxes to Kenyans are not aligned with our values.
“When John
Mbadi brings back those taxes, it won’t just be Ruto’s responsibility; our
members will be complicit,” Wamalwa stated.
Kalonzo also followed suit by
announcing his exit from the Azimio coalition, saying he and Wamalwa will form
a new coalition ahead of 2027.
The disquiet in the opposition
comes after four ODM members were appointed to the government, with
Azimio-affiliated parties expressing discomfort with Raila’s resolve to support
the government.
