Those people frustrating you and giving you pressure are political brokers jostling for survival after your exit,\u201d Mandago said, amid chuckles from the crowd.<\/p>\n<p>While using Jubilee party boss Raphael Tuju and Vice Chairperson David Murathe as examples, Mandago asked Uhuru to set them free so that they start looking for new political partners to save them the agony of being overzealous to please him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMurathe should go behind Raila and Tuju should decide whether he will go with Raila or Mudavadi as early as now. With that you can go home in peace,\u201d Mandago remarked.<\/p>\n<p>In his remarks, Mandago mentioned that Uhuru is \u2018packing his bags\u2019, and urged the people he referred to as \u2018political brokers\u2019 to find room for themselves in other parties, as they still have time.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, Mandago mentioned that this time around, the people who will be in power are those who have never had the opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThose who have been there will now be at the backbench and feel the pinch of being included or excluded in power distribution,\u201d he remarked.<\/p>\n<p>Mandago also took swipe at Ndaragwa Member of Parliament, Jeremiah Kioni with his bid to seek money for the people of Mount Kenya.<\/p>\n<p>He accused him of being shortsighted, adding that the people of Mt Kenya are all over, including in Bungoma and Kitale, and they need to be included in the plan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat of the Mount Kenya People living in Bungoma, Kitale and Uasin Gishu? Don\u2019t you think they need money?\u201d he sarcastically asked, saying that every Kenyan deserves equal distribution of resources.<\/p>\n<p>Mandago used this opportunity to champion the bottom-up economic model spearheaded by Ruto and said it is the only key to a fair distribution of funds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Kenya.
