A melange of tender emotions engulfed the collapsed National Super Alliance (NASA) with RAILA'S decision to join UHURUTO's Jubilee.
Revenge is a dish best served cold . This is the consoling proverb the remaining NASA co-associate principals have been left with. With their former chief misbehaving in a manner that provoked hot air within the the three orphaned allies in Wetangula, Mudavadi and Kalonzo Musyoka.
Wetangula said that the move by NASA ex- chief was ambiguous, uncouth, unorthodox and cringe- archaic.He alluded it to a shepherd who ran riot on his flock, mauling the sheep instead of protecting their interests.
" The sheep had been worried about the wolf in the bush but it ended up being eaten by the Shepherd," a rabble and sad Wetangula bemoaned while speaking in Chwele.
He reiterated that the remaining opposition leaders would not have their political careers subjected to jeopardy. Neither would they be left in a state of limbo by "God knows what" type of traitor.
He added that Wiper's Kalonzo Musyoka, ANC's Musalia Mudavadi and himself were prepared to barricade Raila's political footpaths and take him head on.
Raila's act to elude the now crumbled NASA was in a bid to fend for his own selfish wants and interests. According to Wetangula, that Raila opted to attend a two- man meeting with president Kenyatta wasn't in capacity of NASA chief but as an ODM leader.
" We are going to make them uncomfortable and they are going to feel the discomfort. He has gone to Jubilee as ODM and not as NASA." An infuriated Moses muttered.
Privy, Raila called Wetangula and friends cowards for not attending the dummy - presidency oath held at Uhuru Park on January 30.
Wetangula however terms the aforementioned allegations as an insult, unfounded and with no basis whatsoever since according to Moses, it was Raila who directed the other opposition leaders to hold fire, stay put and only come to the function as rescue team in case things went bad for the former prime minister.
" Them calling us cowards because we did not attend an oath that has no meaning is totally disrespectful. He told us to stay away and come to his rescue when things go bad but now, he has turned against us," Wetangula stipulated.
The " leftovers" of the NASA coalition affirm Raila was looking for non existent reasons to paint them in bad light.
The aforementioned pack of opposition leaders, orphaned, believe Raila misbehaved and acted with no compunction whatsoever, adding that so many of Kenyans who were busy chanting pro- Raila slogans would feel not short of ashamed by Baba's traitor actions.
"The subsequent actions by our 2017 presidential candidate was wanting. Many people lost their lives; others injured while some lost property because they were fighting for his cause. Only for him to betray them," Wetangula added.
He firmly confirms that NASA leaders were never opposed to dialogue. That was something they were much willing to do and championed for.
Wetangula is now planning a political revanche. One that shall ostensibly be used to revamp and cement the place of the Luhya community in matters national politics and most especially on ballot in the foreseeable future.
" We now want to unite the Luhya community so that we move and speak with one voice and that our voice on ballot is heard and very well respected," Wetangula said amid a staunch seconding by Bungoma governor Wycliffe Wangamati.
It now baffles the political atmosphere. Which direction will the opposition take? Will the side remain robust in watchdogging the central government's activities. Will Wetangula, Kalonzo and Mudavadi be firm now that the guy who initially stood up to condemn government's misdeeds has now toppled to the other side of the political devide?
