Kileleshwa Member of County Assembly (MCA) is the latest Azimio member to share opinion on Kalonzo Musyoka’s 2027 presidential aspirations.

Taking to his X (formerly Twitter) page, Alai, who is a member of Raila Odinga’s Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) Party, was in doubt of Kalonzo inheriting Odinga’s support base.

“Kalonzo CAN’T inherit Raila’s support base. Hawezi, even with an endorsement. Baba’s support base needs an authoritative and decisive leader.

“Kalonzo is considered wishy-washy and indecisive by our support base,” he explained.

Alai went on to put out a disclaimer that it was his personal opinion not that of the ODM Party.

Professor Makau Mutua was of a contrary opinion, sharing his sentiments the previous day on the platform.

According to the legal scholar, Kalonzo Musyoka stood the best chance of succeeding Raila Odinga amongst other proposed Azimio leaders.

“Wakwitu Kalonzo Musyoka stands the best chance. Wengine sahau!” he wrote.

On the said day, eight names appeared in the dailies of Odinga’s loyalists who expected backing come 2027.

This comes a day after the Wiper Democratic Party leader affirmed that he would be on the ballot in 2027.

He said he had gathered enough experience and skills over the years he has been in politics to lead the nation and turn around the economy of the country and the lives of poor Kenyans.

Speaking in Embu town on Tuesday, February 13, Kalonzo said he was sure he will capture the seat and promised in his first executive order will be to scrap the housing levy.

He at the same time slammed the government for making the life of Kenyans difficult through heavy taxation.

He accused the Kenya Kwanza administration of failing Kenyans especially low-income earners by imposing huge taxes on them.

“The People of Embu have declared categorically that the instability and duplicity of the Kenya Kwanza regime has an expiration time stamp dated August 10, 2027,” Kalonzo said.
