Cord camps in Homabay to drum up support for Moses Kajwang, Wetangula declares the contest is between Cord and Jubilee

CORD leader Moses Wetang’ula led ODM campaign rallies on Saturday in search of votes for ODM’s Moses Kajwang’in Ndhiwa Constituency.
Wetang’ula drummed up support forKajwang’  the party's flag bearer ahead of the February 12 by-election.
Speaking during campaign rallies at various points in Ndhiwa constituency, Wetang’ula alleged that the contest for Homa Bay senatorial seat is between the Jubilee Government and CORD.
He accused the ruling coalition of sponsoring some of the candidates contesting the seat on other political parties’ tickets.
The Ford Kenya leader alleged that the Government is planning to make CORD lose the seat in order to reduce its popularity in the area.
“This race is not between Kajwang’ and other candidates but it is between Jubilee and CORD. Electing an ODM candidate will enable us to achieve our ambition of sending the Jubilee Government home,” Wetang’ula said.
He urged residents of Homa Bay to vote for Moses Kajwang’ as a tribute to the late Senator Otieno Kajwang’.
“A vote to Moses is a vote for respect and remembrance to my late brother Otieno Kajwang," he said.
ODM Chairman John Mbadi used the platform to criticize some of the party legislators who are opposed to the party’s choice in the race.
Mbadi said the party will take stern measures against Karachuonyo MP Eng. James Rege and his Rangwe counterparty George Oner for supporting Maendeleo Democratic Party candidate Philip Okundi.
“Let us all support Kajwang’ because this by-election is going to mean a lot for politics of this county. Time has come when we need to forget about information coming from other candidates so that we can maintain political unity we have enjoyed in this county,” Mbadi said.
Senator Elizabeth Ongoro, MPs Tom Kajwang’ (Ruaraka), Chris Wamalwa (Kiminini), Peter Kaluma (Homa Bay Town), Homa Bay Deputy Governor Hamilton Orata, acting ODM Homa Bay branch Chairperson Monica Amolo and Ndhiwa Politician Michael Agwanda condemned the recent violence in which Kajwang’ was injured by youths during a funeral in Kochia, Rangwe Constituency.
A similar rally to drum support for Kajwang in Kasipula and Kabondo Kasipul Constituencies was led by Kakamega Governor Wyclief Oparanya, Kasipul MP Oyugi Magwanga, Homa Bay women rep Gladys Wanga , her Kisumu counterparty Rose Nyamunga and Suna East MP Junet Mohammed.
Oparanya and Magwanga alleged that the Government is scuttling the CORD support in its stronghold by sponsoring candidates to defeat the ODM’s.
“Let everybody understand that we should vote the ODM to shun our enemies,” Oparanya said.
They started their rally from Chabera in Kabondo Kaspul to Oyugis in Kasipul constituencies.
Wentang’ula later disclosed that Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka is heading to Homa Bay county on Sunday for a campaign rally in support of Kajwang’ while CORD leader Raila Odinga is expected on Wednesday.
Meanwhile, other senatorial candidates Philip Okundi (Maendeleo Democratic) Hillary Alila (Independent) and Fred Rabongo (National Agenda Party) also proceeded with their campaigns in the county.
Okundi who visited Oyugis town and various parts of Kasipul promised to utilize his network to influence disbursement of more devolved funds to Homa Bay County.
“I will also use my position to foster unity in this county so that we can join our effort in development agenda,” Okundi said.
Alila attended burial of businessman Owiti Odede in Kodera Ragwe village where he promised to use his position in ending perennial water shortage afflicting the county.
“My leadership will ensure creation of industries like that of potatoes to ensure value addition to agricultural produce,” said Alila.
