ODM Secretary General Ababu Namwamba with other leaders from Western region in a past event. Namwamba is secretly laying plans to start a new political party to rival Jubilee and Cord.
Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party Secretary General Ababu Namwamba is secretly laying plans to start a new political party to rival Jubilee and Cord.
In what might rattle Cord, Ababu is reportedly convincing Moses Wetangula to ditch the coalition and team with him to establish a new coalition.
Speaking on Sunday during a meeting that brought together professionals from his community, Ababu talked of the ‘The Third Force’.
Those privy to the MPs political maneuvers said he is also targeting Amani National Congress party boss Musalia Mudavadi to bring in on board in forming the so called ‘TTF’.
“I am ruling out the option of joining Jubilee. We are in consultation with other partners to form a formidable third force to take on Cord and Jubilee in the elections,” he said.
“We have approached Amani leader Musalia Mudavadi, Ford Kenya boss Moses Wetang’ula and other leaders, including six MPs from Nyanza, to chart the way forward,” he added.
The Budalangi MP has been at loggerheads with ODM honchos citing frustrations in exercising his mandate. ODM refuted the claims.
Political pundits have already hypothesised major political fallout within Cord and Jubilee as politicians position themselves for the 2017 poll.
