Wiper party leader Kalonzo Musyoka has responded to Deputy President William Ruto after the latter invited him to join their Kenya Kwanza team.
Addressing rallies in Machakos and Kitui Counties on Wednesday, DP Ruto urged Kalonzo to leave Raila Odinga terming him a 'dishonest' politician, and work with him.
"Mnaskia mpaka juzi walienda wakamkoroga Kalonzo mpaka aka sign karatasi mwisho akasema ata hajui alisign nini. Mnaona ile mateso. Ambieni Kalonzo atafutane na mimi tufanye kazi pamoja, awachane na mtu ya kitendawili," DP Ruto stated.
Speaking in Murang'a County on Friday, Kalonzo rejected the advances by DP Ruto reaffirming his support for Odinga.
The former vice president noted that he was fine in the Azimio coalition.
He further questioned why DP Ruto didn't resign after being endorsed as UDA presidential flagbearer.
“Nilisema kwa sababu ya Kenya hii, nitamuunga mkono Raila kwa mara ya tatu, kwa sababu Kenya hii ina maana kuliko mtu binafsi.
"Ndiyo nimekuja watu wa Murang’a kuwaambia mimi ni Kalonzo yule yule nilimsaidia Kibaki…naomba sasa tumsaidie huyu Raila, na hata kama haupendi Raila, naomba umpigie kura kwa sababu Kalonzo yuko pale,” Kalonzo told the gathering in Murang'a.
Kalonzo rallied the populous Mt Kenya to back Raila Odinga's presidency.
