The Wiper Party says it fully supports Azimio La Umoja-One Kenya coalition’s ongoing nationwide rallies.
The opposition coalition’s leader Raila Odinga has been mobilising supporters during the well attended rallies to oppose the Kenya Kwanza government.
The announcement comes hardly a week after Wiper Leader Kalonzo Musyoka allowed party Governors to cooperate with President William Ruto but 'not to forget their party'
He did not make reference to his cooperation stance on Governors who sat through the press briefing, perfectly executing double speak over cooperation with Ruto.
In a statement on Sunday after a two-day retreat in Naivasha,Wiper Leader Kalonzo Musyoka said Wiper remains in Azimio and backs the public engagement forums.
“We firmly remain in the Azimio La Umoja - One Kenya Alliance… We fully support the ongoing Azimio La Umoja - One Kenya Peoples' Barazas,” the Wiper leader told journalists.
Accusing President Ruto’s leadership of trying to divide the Azimio coalition in purported efforts to “legitimise their fraud”, Musyoka said his party will not allow Kenya to crumble down to what he called dark days of pre-multi-party politics.
“We will not allow this country to retrogress back to the dark days of the one-party state. Despite all their efforts, we remain intact and united.”
Odinga has lined up a series of rallies in various counties as he mobilises supporters to reject the President William Ruto’s regime.
And while he has already held several rallies in Nairobi, Machakos and Kisumu counties, there have been reports going round that Kalonzo Musyoka’s party is not in support of the rallies.
He also cited rising unemployment rate and an “alarming” state of insecurity.
At the retreat, the party also said it had resolved that its MCAs should fully support governors and work together.
