AfricaPress-Kenya:<\/strong> Wiper and ANC have hit out at their coalition partner ODM over its members\u2019 reported discomfort with party leader Raila Odinga\u2019s handshake with President Uhuru Kenyatta.<\/p>\n

The two parties, which are ODM\u2019s partners in the National Super Alliance (NASA), dared the Orange party to walk out of the arrangement with President Kenyatta if they were aggrieved.<\/p>\n

ANC National Chairman Kelvin Lunani said they should not \u201cbother consummating a relationship based on threats, intimation and ransom politics\u201d.<\/p>\n

Further, Lunani said ODM\u2019s complaints against the involvement of Interior Principal Secretary Karanja Kibicho in the BBI campaigns were insincere.<\/p>\n

\u201cANC has no interest in driving a wedge between anyone. As a matter of fact, it is ODM\u2019s pursuit of personalising BBI that is the lever for the attempted exclusion of many stakeholders from the process,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Concede defeat<\/strong><\/p>\n

Musalia Mudavadi\u2019s party also took a swipe at ODM over the Matungu by-election last week, saying the Orange party had lost the contest fairly and should concede defeat.<\/p>\n

\u201cANC was the victim of planned and co-ordinated massive voter fraud,\u201d Lunani said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe witnessed people carrying stacks of pre-marked ballot papers and even marked poll result forms.\u201d<\/p>\n

The statement came after Wiper Party politicians also hit out at ODM over its supposed jitters with the arrangement.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf I invite you to my house, you should not come and start dictating to me how I should cook my food, how I should do my things. If ODM is not satisfied with the terms of the handshake, let them quit,\u201d said Kitui Senator Enoch Wambua while speaking to a congregation at ATG Church in Mlolongo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
