Kariobangi South Uhuru MCA Robert Mbatia has said the migration of Jubilee Party-allied MPs from Azimio la Umoja is now inexorable.
The seasoned politician told the Star that they were tired of being taken for granted.
"We can't keep pretending to be at ease while our partners take advantage of us in plain daylight. None of the pre-election agreements have been followed through on, "Mbatia said.
Mbatia claimed that ODM had taken over all of the critical and significant seats at the county assembly that had previously been reserved for the Jubilee Party.
"We've had enough, and our exit is unstoppable. A lot will happen in the following days. We can't keep working with people who believe they are entitled to every seat in the county assembly."
When asked if they were concerned that they would be treated similarly by Kenya Kwanza leaders once they moved camp, Mbatia stated he didn't believe they would face anything worse than what happened in Azimio.
Making an example of a family arrangement, Mbatia said being denied meals by a father or brother was more hurtful than getting the same treatment from a neighbour.
"We'd rather be taken advantage of in Kenya Kwanza than in Azimio. We are convinced that we have made the correct option that we will not be sorry for "Mbatia stated.
Asked about his relationship with Nairobi County Governor Johnson Sakaja, Mbatia said they were on good terms.
"Sakaja is a strong leader with a clear vision for the country. I believe we will accomplish a great deal during his leadership. He gets along well with the bulk of the county assembly legislators," Mbatia said.
