“At this point, Wiper continues as a member party of the NASA coalition because you can’t belong to the same coalition at the same time. Our intention is to conclude a coalition agreement with Jubilee. We are also consulting our friends in the NASA coalition as well as Chama Cha Mashinani to be able to move this country in the necessary direction,” Kalonzo said.
Isaac Ruto termed the agreement as historic since it provided a perfect opportunity for President Uhuru to deliver on his pledges he made to the people of Kenya.
According to Ruto, working together didn’t mean he was abandoning his ideas and political parties. The agreement, however, meant they were opening a new chapter in Kenya.
This is indeed the first period in history in which we will have a peaceful period of development between one election and the other,” Isaac Ruto said.
