“Wiper Democratic Movement leader, Kalonzo Musyoka said the Jubilee leadership had a hatched a plot to use a tyranny of numbers in Parliament to change the constitution in order to remain in power forever. Kalonzo who was on a two day tour of Kisii and Nyamira counties expected his coalition partners in the opposition to support his presidential bid in the 2017 general election in a bid to kick out Jubilee. Kevin Mutai has that story” (NTV Kenya, 2016)






“Who will be the opposition coalition, Cord, presidential candidate to take on Jubilee’s Uhuru Kenyatta in next year’s polls? Well, that remains the big question with various cord leaders and the constituent political parties seemingly at loggerheads on how to go about the process, let alone which candidate among the three co-principals, Raila Odinga, Kalonzo Musyoka and Moses Wetangula is best suited to deliver victory next year. Game plan 2017 takes a look at the seemingly divergent views of the coalition’s top leaders on how to go about the presidential nomination exercise” (Kenya Citizen TV, 2016).

“Ford Kenya leader and cord co-principal Moses Wetangula has asked CORD chief Raila Odinga to shelve his presidential bid, and back either of his co-principals if the coalition. However Odinga’s allies in ODM insist it was neither debatable nor in doubt that the former prime minister is CORD’s preferred candidate” (Kenya CitizenTV, 2016).
