Wetangula Irritated With Raila’s Statement At Jacaranda

Speaker of the National Assembly, Moses Wetangula, is an irritated man.

This is after Azimio leader, Raila Odinga, decided to drag Wetangula’s wife into the 2022 election politics, during his Jacaranda grounds rally on Sunday.

In his fiery speech, Raila alleged that the Kenya Kwanza team is partly bound in nepotism.

According to Baba; Wetangula, Ex-IEBC Chair Wafula Chebukati, and the current chair of the Cherera 4 tribunal, Aggrey Muchelule, all have wives from the same family.

“Muchelule and Chebukati are brothers in law because their wives are sisters. Even Wetangula married from the same home,” Raila stated.

“One of them stole elections, the other is the National Assembly Speaker and the one is the Chair of the tribunal. I told Masit she is a sheep in a court full of wolves,” he continued in his Jacaranda speech.

And now, Wetangula has come out boldly to defend himself, wondering why his family ties to Chebukati did not bother Raila when they were in the same team (NASA) in 2017.

“@RailaOdinga in 2017 General/Presidential election I was your partner in NASA. If being Chebukati relative in 2022 mattered, it must have equally mattered then. Excuses and blame games too, have limits! Soon they will be a circus…,” Wetangula asserted on Twitter.

Wetangula was one of the core principals of the NASA outfit that ran against Uhuru Kenyatta for presidency in 2017, with Raila as their flag bearer.

The team lost and split soon after following the Raila-Uhuru handshake.
