Kimilili MP Didmus Barasa has advised President William Ruto and opposition leader Raila Odinga. He urged them to disregard former Deputy President Kalonzo Musyoka.
He labeled Kalonzo as insignificant in Kenya’s political landscape. Barasa made these remarks during a public event in Bungoma County. He dismissed Kalonzo as a representative of the past generations and not the future.
Barasa highlighted his own unexpected rise to becoming a member of parliament. He emphasized that his name garners more attention in the media than Kalonzo Musyoka’s. He stated that Kalonzo is stuck in the past.
He does not symbolize the future or later generations in Kenya’s politics. Kalonzo Musyoka has been striving to position himself as the opposition leader after Raila Odinga’s decision to join the government.
Barasa’s comments show a sentiment that Kalonzo’s political relevance is diminishing. He urges key political figures to overlook Kalonzo in their strategies and decisions.
The dynamics of Kenya’s political landscape are evolving. Figures like Kalonzo Musyoka face criticism for their perceived lack of relevance in shaping the country’s future political direction.
Barasa’s call for Ruto and Raila to ignore Kalonzo underscores the shifting alliances and power dynamics within Kenya’s political sphere.
