COTU Secretary General Francis Atwoli has claimed that a section of One Kenya Alliance (OKA) principals are looking for sympathy votes.
Atwoli said that the principals are seeking sympathy especially by targeting president Uhuru Kenyatta and ODM leader Raila Odinga.
He criticized ANC leader Musalia Mudavadi for challenging President Kenyatta’s speech in Nakuru
“Why are they challenging President Kenyatta? He does not want to be re-elected. Why are you wasting time on him instead of announcing your presidential bid and competing with Raila and Ruto?” Atwoli posed.
“This is not the time for blame games, it is the time of competing. They say they are waiting to see the mistakes their competitors will make while campaigning. You see this stupidity,” he went on.
According to him, OKA principals are not serious presidential candidates in the coming elections.
He said that next year’s presidential race will be about Raila Odinga and DP William Ruto because they are the ones carrying out serious campaigns unlike OKA leaders.
“Some people are running away with the votes and you are still undecided, you will wait forever and stay there. They should be where Raila and Ruto are. There is a huge distance between them,” Atwoli stated.
He further said that some of the leaders are trying to please Ruto so as to join his camp and support his presidential bid, a move that would affect them in case they decide to vie for presidency next year.
“Nobody is listening to them. Nobody wants to be associated with beggars or breakups,” he added.
