On Monday, Odinga named NARC-Kenya leader Martha Karua as his running mate at the Kenyatta International Convention Centre.

While many expected Musyoka to become the running mate, Odinga instead appointed him as the chief cabinet Secretary to help form the Azimio government.

“After reviewing the committee report, I have nominated Stephen Kalonzo Musyoka as the Chief Cabinet Secretary to help me form the Azimio government,” Odinga told the press in the capital Nairobi.

He added: “I also nominate Kenneth Marende as the speaker of the senate. I also nominate Oparanya as CS for Treasury.”

In a separate press conference, Musyoka said: “We have agreed to go separate ways with Azimio La Umoja, I wish Raila Odinga’s running mate Martha Karua well.”

He added: “I told Raila the decision to pick Karua will be met with a lot of opposition. OKA will be alone and very soon Wiper will be launching its own manifesto.”

Musyoka went ahead and named Andrew Sunkuli as his running mate.

“When he (Kalonzo) told me I was going to be his running mate, I thought he meant we would be jogging together…Then it came to me what he meant. Today, I accept to be his running mate,” Sunkuli said.

He added: “If Wiper Party had never ‘wiped’ anything in itself, it is going to ‘wipe’ the pastoralists. That journey begins today. Pastoralists have found their way to the table of national conversation via Wiper Party.”

He revealed that pastoralists had found their way to the table of national conversation via Wiper Party.
