Sports Minister Ababu Namwamba has lauded Vice President Kalonzo Musyoka for ditching G7 Alliance but sympathised with Justice Minister Eugene Wamalwa for accepting House majority leader post in the group.

Mr Namwamba said that House majority leader post was dependent on many factors and can only be confirmed after the elections.



“It is a pity that Wamalwa has been offered hot air. This position depends on so many things including the leader being approved by elected members,” said Mr Namwamba. Read (Wiper’s Mutula to host ODM amid alliance talk)

He termed the pact as a raw deal given that nobody is sure whether their alliance will deliver the required threshold to secure the position.

Mr Namwamba also asked Eldoret North MP William Ruto to learn from history before accepting coalition deals with some leaders.



“The late Jaramogi once said no Kenyatta! no Odinga! no uhuru! but that statement was not rewarded when Kenyatta took power. Raila said Kibaki tosha and his loyalty was not rewarded. Kalonzo was called in to save Kibaki government following the post-election mayhem but he has been left in the cold. So, Ruto should learn from history,” he said.
