ODM Secretary General Edwin Sifuna has refuted claims that Nasa has asked President Uhuru Kenyatta to unite members.
Speaking on Tuesday, Sifuna said that even the Nasa coalition partners don’t want to be together and it is the constitutional mandate of the President to unify the country.
"You can tell it is not anyone of us in Nasa asking the President to put us together. You can tell that we don’t want to be together, we have not invited him into our fight."
"The President has a constitutional duty to foster national unity amongst national leaders this is part of the broader motivation of him to taking the handshake," Sifuna said on Citizen TV.
This comes a few days after Deputy President William Ruto asked opposition principals to stop bothering the head of state with their disunity.
"The President was not elected to work for five or six people. The President works for the 47 million Kenyans not opposition leaders who cannot agree on anything," he said.
The DP said opposition leaders have been pushing the President to lead efforts to amend the Constitution to have a system of governance that would accommodate all of them.
"Now that the plan seems to have hit a dead end, they want the President to bring them together. One of them says he still has bullets, another one says he cannot work with a certain person while the other says he wants money from the Political Parties Fund," Ruto said.
"Stop wasting the President's time. Your divisions should not be a concern of the head of state. The President works for all Kenyans," he reiterated.
During the Citizen TV interview, Kakamega Senator Cleophas Malala who is affiliated to the ANC party insisted that Nasa is dead.
He added that the coalition's death was brought about by the Raila Odinga led Orange party.
" Our term limit for NASA agreement was 2017-2022. We have collapsed because of mistrust, political unfaithfulness and political disloyalties orchestrated by ODM," Malala said.
