Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) leader Raila Odinga is just about to make another silly mistake that is likely to cost him his final and fifth stab at the presidency.
According to one Gordon Opiyo, Raila Odinga should use all avenues possible to get Wiper leader Steven Kalonzo Musyoka if he is to compete fairly with the deputy president.
Mr. Opiyo argued that the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) leader bypassed William Ruto in 2013 with a false belief that he could get the Kalenjins votes either directly or through some upcoming leaders.
Gordon Opiyo added that Raila’s attempt of writing off a whole kingpin like Kalonzo Musyoka from the larger Ukambani region will remain a pipe dream.
Below is what Mr. Opiyo opined about Raila:
“Look here, hubris is bad…. Do you remember what happened in 2013, when a few Kalenjin leaders cheated you that you could bypass Ruto, and get Kalenjin votes directly, after showing Ruto Madharau??????
“Now that comedian called Alfred Mutua takes you to Mlolongo, you close the road and create a traffic jam, a huge crowd builds up, and then you think that you can upstage Kalonzo in Ukambani???!???????
“Do you think that Mutua can beat Kalonzo in Machakos???? He may have won the Governor seat twice, but upstaging Kalonzo as Ukambani kingpin…..? No way.
Kivutha Kibwana may have won twice… But kicking out the influence of Kalonzo in Makueni…? No way..
“Ngilu rode on the NASA wave and won the Kitui seat, but Ngilu can’t match influence of Kalonzo in Kitui…You can’t just wipe out a whole kingpin like Kalonzo…. You can’t…..
Whoever is lying to Raila that he can kick Kalonzo off the stage and take Kamba votes, cheated him in 2013 that he would use a few Kalenjin leaders in 2013 to kick Ruto out.
This guy does not learn..No wonder he stoned his mathematics teacher in std 6, Mr James Oremo, who was trying to teach him vile ya kupiga hesabu…Ana fanya hesabu oblong..
Kalonzo aki peleka kura side ya Ruto…Out of anger and the Madharau Raila is showing him.” Concluded Mr. Opiyo.
