Gatundu South Member of Parliament (MP) Moses Kuria has now claimed that Wiper party leader Kalonzo Msuyoka will not be picked as Raila Odinga's running mate.
In an update on Facebook, Kuria cautioned his Kenya Kwanza team stating that while Kalonzo will not be picked as Odinga's running mate, he will still stay in Azimio.
"Word of caution to my fellow Kenya Kwanza great people. Kalonzo will still go for the interview. He is currently on study leave in preparation. He will not be picked as the running mate. Yet he will still find a convenient excuse to stay in Azimio. A lost cause," the legislator stated.
This sectioned panel of Azimio la Umoja is set to kickstart the process of vetting and selecting Odinga's running mate today.
Reports also indicate that Wiper party leader Kalonzo Musyoka will also not be attending the interview.
On Tuesday, ODM director of elections Junet Mohamed shed more light on what they are looking for as they search for Odinga's deputy.
"The guiding principle in identifying a running mate for the Azimio Presidential candidate is: We don’t want to have a deputy president like William Ruto," he stated.
