Narok Senator Ledama Olekina has said that Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka only cares about his interests and nothing else.
Speaking on Thursday, the ODM senator insisted that he was convinced that the former Vice president is nothing but a spoiler, who doesn't care about the country.
Ledama added that Kalonzo should not be given a chance to lead Kenya, because he only believes in getting it done his way.
"I am now convinced that Kalonzo Musyoka is nothing but a spoiler! He does not care about Kenya but his own selfish interests! A Leader who believes that it’s only his way or the highway should not be given a chance to lead Kenya. I too can make a powerful Deputy President!" he said in a tweet.
His remarks came after a section of leaders allied to his Wiper party demanded that he must be named Azimio la Umoja-One Kenya Alliance presidential running mate.
The selection process created by Azimio triggered speculations Kalonzo might land a different role.
The seven-member team of religious leaders and Kalonzo's representative is expected to forward two names Raila and President Uhuru Kenyatta will consider for a running mate.
Kalonzo had also protested why he has to be subjected to an exam to be Raila's deputy.
“This issue is beginning to weigh heavily on me. I find it almost unacceptable discussing it. …. If this issue is solved earlier, it will give some of us the impetus to campaign,” Kalonzo said last week.
Led by Senator Mutula Kilonzo, the leaders said that Raila Odinga who is the Azimio flag bearer will lose the Kamba community vote if he doesn't pick Kalonzo.
Makueni MP Daniel Maanzo also insisted the Wiper boss must not be humiliated before a panel, warning that Raila risks losing the Ukambani vote if their man does not land the ticket.
“The choice is his (Raila’s). If he wants to be the President, let him look for Kalonzo. I won’t advise my party leader to appear before any vetting panel so as to be told to say his names as they appear in the ID. That is rubbish,” Maanzo said.
However, on Wednesday, the running mate selection panel said that interested individuals will not have to attend the interviews physically, except for those who will want to.
