“…Atwoli, Murathe these old veterans they should go home and
relax, or they should sit there and advice young people like us and tell us do
this way…But they should not be abusing people every day, threatening people
that so and so will not be on the ballot, are you God?... I think these men are
old (Mimi naona hii siasa ya hawa wazee, wamzeeka sana) they should leave it to
us,” he said.
The Nyali MP is an ally of Deputy President William Ruto while Murathe and Atwoli are allied to President Uhuru Kenyatta and former Prime Minister Raila Odinga.
