DAVID SANKOK: Oka combined with Raila can't beat Ruto

I have heard there’s a possibility of Oka reuniting with ODM leader Raila Amolo Odinga. For us as Tangatanga, we see them as perennial losers. They are not very good at winning. We are already confident that we have wananchi behind us and God.

They could be confident too but they only speak of the deep state.  I want to tell them that the reunion has been there before. These people were together and started going apart.

The Bible in the book of Deuteronomy 28 verse seven says, “The Lord will grant that the enemies who rise up against you will be defeated before you. They will come at you from one direction but flee from you in seven.”

They had been split seven ways and now have to restrategise and rethink. We are not worried at all. They were together in Msambweni and we beat them. The same was the case in Juja and Kiambaa.

They have had this system and we have kept defeating them. We are not worried at all because these are kicks of a dying horse. Those are last-minute attempts to unite.

In UDA, we want them to be united and then they tell us who it is we will compete with. Raila has said he would declare his bid on December 9 and he is already telling us what he would do when he is president.

Will he be president without contesting? Then there is this professional running mate who has even vowed in God’s name that he wouldn’t support Raila having lied to him.

These people were banking on BBI to bring them together. They were planning to be prime minister, deputy president, assistant prime ministers. That is what brought them together.

They have no agenda, no party. Which party are they using? Is it Oka, Wiper or ODM? These are people who cannot scare us at all. In fact, we want them united so that we beat them once and for all.

If you were a deputy president, how proud would you be that bigwigs in the country’s political circles are not planning any development projects or agenda for wananchi but just to defeat you?

In fact, Raila said they should unite against Ruto or they perish. Imagine a former PM, former deputy prime minister, former vice president and a son of a former president uniting to fight Ruto. With us behind Ruto, there is nothing they can do.
