Africa-Press – Kenya. Azimio la Umoja has upheld its position that it will not tolerate any acts of betrayal from any of its elected leaders. The Coalition told its members who are not ready to stick to the party rules to quit.
“In this struggle, we shall not tolerate acts that amount to betrayal of the dreams and aspirations of the people of Kenya. Azimio, therefore, asks its elected leaders to shape up or ship out,” reads the resolution from the leaders.
The decision was arrived at following the conclusion of a two-day parliamentary group meeting in Machakos. “There will be no two ways about this.” The leaders were told to push for the development of their regions in Parliament rather than meeting President William Ruto.
“Development is to be sought from Parliament which appropriates resources and not from State House. State House has no constitutional mandate or power to appropriate funds,” the draft states.
“The flirtations and co-habitations with the Kenya Kwanza regime under whatever pretext is totally unacceptable.” The statement came after some nine MPs visited Ruto at Statehouse early this week.
Azimio leader Raila Odinga claimed that leaders who went to State House to meet President William Ruto are traitors. Speaking during the outfits PG, Raila said they should resign from the party and Azimio coalition.
“Members who defected from Azimio need to resign their position and go,” he said.
