Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Former Kakamega governor Wycliffe Oparanya has said he has no business with opposition leader Raila Odinga again.<\/p>\n

The latest move could be a political disaster for Raila who has previously banked on Oparanya to galvanise the Luyha community.<\/p>\n

Oparanya, who is Raila’s deputy in ODM, said he will henceforth focus on rallying for the unity of the Luyha community.<\/p>\n

After supporting Raila five times in vain, Oparanya said, it is time for the Luyha community to chart its own political path ahead of the 2027 polls.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am offering myself from now to lead the unity drive of our people. I am done with Raila and even if he bad-mouths me, God forbid, he knows, he will not be forgiven,\u201d Oparanya said.<\/p>\n

Oparanya, who led the Azimio presidential campaigns in Western Kenya, accused Raila of political betrayal.<\/p>\n

He, however, did not indicate whether or not he will quit ODM.<\/p>\n

He said the region’s support and endorsement of Raila for decades has not counted in the sharing of election spoils.<\/p>\n

For instance, Oparanya wondered why the Luyha community could not be given even a single slot in the East African Legislative Assembly.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe result of that vote is that all other big tribes but the Luhya sent an MP to EALA,\u201d he said on Tuesday during a funeral in Ichinga village, Mumias East.<\/p>\n

He attended the funeral of Nominated MCA Phaustine Welimo.<\/p>\n

The governor was pushing for former Shinyalu MP Justus Kizito in the EALA elections but the politician was defeated in Parliament.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was pushing for Kizito Justus to go to EA LA but MPs were grumbling that Kizito had no money. I was wondering that MPs must also be bribed to vote,\u201d he charged.<\/p>\n

Oparanya’s signal adds salt to injury after a section of Luyha MPs on Tuesday accused Raila of betrayal in the sharing of minority slots in Parliament.<\/p>\n

They claimed Raila excluded the community from the Parliamentary Service Commission as well as minority leadership positions.<\/p>\n
