It is true that if elections were held today, Moses Wetang'ula would only get minimal support, Bungoma Governor Kenneth Lusaka has said.
Lusaka noted the support was placed at about three per cent and said Wetang'ula, who is Ford Kenya leader and Bungoma Senator, would follow new entrant Philip Murgor.
He asked the Senator to accept the findings of a survey by Infotrak that found him the least popular presidential hopeful in the National Super Alliance.
"Let him accept that he can't be president and go back to the ground to campaign rather than continue living in utopia," the Governor told the Star in Bungoma town.
"Instead of campaigning for the presidency he is busy running up and down with gubernatorial aspirants in Bungoma as if the county decides who is next president."
Lusaka added that
Wetang'ula will not do well because he "campaigns at funerals only".
"Funerals are not meant for campaigns but consoling the families," he said.
“You can't be president if you only campaign at funerals."
He said
Wetang'ula should revise his strategy to keep from
political oblivion.
Lusaka also asked the Senator to stop calling him corrupt or move to court if he has evidence.
Wetang'ula dismissed Infotrak's findings saying he was not interested in what pollsters had to say but what the people of Kenya thought.
He declared that he wanted the Opposition's ticket but recently asked his supporters to accept whichever post he will get in NASA.
“I have to hunt for an elephant but kindly accept [what I bring back even if a rabbit,” he has been quoted as saying on several occasions.
