Senator Aaron Cheruiyot has launched a sharp critique of Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka, accusing him of failing to deliver sufficient support to help Raila Odinga win the presidency in previous elections.
In a public statement, Cheruiyot, a vocal member of the Kenya Kwanza coalition, claimed that his party and allies have demonstrated stronger loyalty and commitment to the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) than Kalonzo.
“Wewe Kalonzo Musyoka, you never brought enough votes to make Raila President. We are more ODM than you,” Cheruiyot said.
The remarks come amid ongoing political realignments in Kenya, with parties positioning themselves ahead of the 2027 General Election. Cheruiyot’s comments have drawn mixed reactions online, with some supporters applauding his boldness and others criticizing the tone as divisive.
Political analysts note that Cheruiyot’s statement underscores longstanding tensions among coalition partners, highlighting the challenges of maintaining unity in multi-party alliances where competition for influence remains high.
As the debate unfolds, attention is now on how Kalonzo and his supporters will respond, and whether such exchanges will shape future coalition dynamics in Kenyan politics.
