Wednesday January 23, 2013 - Vice President Kalonzo Musyoka on Tuesday revealed why he left Jubilee supremos, Deputy Prime Minister Uhuru Kenyatta and Eldoret North MP William Ruto for CORD’s Presidential flag bearer Prime Minister Raila Odinga.
Speaking at a well attended CORD rally in Makueni County, the VP said Uhuru and Ruto, who he was with in G7 alliance told him he had little to offer as they negotiated for a possible pre-election deal.
“These two gentlemen asked me what I would bring to the table to warrant me a Presidential position and I told them I had over a million votes. They said that was very little,” Kalonzo said.
Kalonzo said he told Uhuru and Ruto that he will better be somewhere elsewhere.
“I told them I would take the million votes elsewhere and make sure they lose on March 4th even before noon,” Kalonzo said amid applause from his supporters.
On the ongoing parties’ nominations disputes, the VP told Wiper and CORD losers, that the alliance will not tolerate meaningless infighting that would tear the alliance apart.
He said such fights were likely to give their opponents an opportunity to snatch a win for them.
