Kalonzo orders Alfred Mutua to stop working with ‘rebel MPs’

Wiper party leader Kalonzo Musyoka has ordered Machakos Governor Alfred Mutua to stop working with “rebel MPs” in the county. Speaking during a funds drive at Mitaboni AIC in Kathiani on Sunday, Musyoka warned Mutua against associating himself with MPs who are undermining Wiper.

The Cord co-principal asked Mutua to distance himself from county MPs who have publicly pledged allegiance to Jubilee. “I want the governor, who is a member of Wiper Democratic Movement, to get out of that cocoon of rebel MPs which is causing confusion all over Kenya. The governor needs to support his Wiper party,” Kalonzo said.

Since he was sworn into office, Mutua has had cordial relationships with MPs who ditched Wiper during party nominations accusing the party of rigging them out.The MPs vied on other parties and won on in the March 4, 2013 general election. The MPs include Victor Munyaka (Machakos Town), Itwiku Mbai (Masinga), Vincent Musau (Mwala) and Francis Mwangangi (Yatta).

The four have been accompanying Mutua as he launches most of his projects in the county and have on several occasions hit out at Senator Johnstone Muthama. Kalonzo said it is time to show who the true party members are. “We are calling everybody to order; order in the Wiper party and by extension order in the Cord coalition,” he said. However, Musau dismissed Kalonzo’s order as misplaced. He said the Wiper leader has no moral authority to order Mutua around as he failed to do a tenth of what Mutua has done in one year.

“He had 30 years to do so much but what has he done? He should let Machakos be and let Ukambani be. We have no problem with him. He is more senior than all of us and we respect him. But that should not mean that he should baby-sit Mutua,” Musau said.
