Central Imenti MP Gideon Mwiti has told NASA leader Raila Odinga
to leave independent candidates alone.
He addressed the press in Meru yesterday. Mwiti said the Constitution recognises independents.
“Raila knows very well that independent candidates are not just a creation of people, but they are recognised by law. Why is he moving around saying that he does not recognise them?” he said.
Mwiti said Raila should recognise independent candidates as a force.
“He told Deputy President William Ruto to keep off NASA affairs. Now I’m also telling him to keep off independent candidates,” he said.
Mwiti seeks to defend his seat as an independent candidate. He said party primaries were not fair.
He urged Meru residents not to vote for Raila because “he is dictatorial.”
Mwiti urged residents to vote for President Uhuru Kenyatta. At the weekend, Raila said ODM only recognises those who won during the primaries.
