KENYA: KISUMU POLITICIAN CONS V-P KALONZO

By Agwanda Powerman

A Kisumu politician who was an aspirant sometimes during the general elections is on the run from supporters of Vice President Kalonzo Musyoka after she conned the VP of undisclosed amount of money so that she could “handle hecklers” who had planned to boor and heckle the VP during the YES campaign rally in KIsumu.

The politician together with an Assistant Minister from Ukambani land are said to have approached Kalonzo and wondered if he was aware that Kisumu Town West MP Olago Aluoch had had organized people to jeer, boor and heckle him during his visit to Kisumu in the presence of Prime Minister Raila Odinga and President Mwai Kibaki along the streets of Kisumu and at Moi stadium where the rally was to take place.

Kalonzo upon hearing that and having seen a similar incident in Ukambani at Kathiani panic kingly pleaded with the politician “to do all that she could to save him from further embarrassment.

“She told the VP that she needed some money to quickly rush to Kisumu to contain, handle and diffuse all the tension a head of the VP arrival and level the ground for him, the VP told one of his Personal Assistants to give the lady some colossal amount of cash to go and “handle” the situation “said an MP from Ukambani who was present during the discussion and didn’t want his name mentioned.

Upon his arrival and neither seeing nor hearing any hecklers, the VP was truly convinced that the lady politician had indeed “leveled” the ground for him and at the KIsumu Yatcht Club where the President was meeting local leaders he sneeringly chidded Olago wondering from him where “the youths he wanted to heckle Kalonzo “ were.

“Olago know that I have a network everywhere in this country and you could not succeeed with your plot”Kalonzo told Olago.

Olago angrily told the VP that he had never been party to such politics and if indeed he wanted him being heckled him could have done it.

“Bwana VP you are my VP and a professional colleague, for sure why can I do that to you and for what gain?”Olago asked Kalonzo before rushing to Raila telling him that somebody somewhere was trying to create an anthill over nothing.

Raila told Kalonzo that such athing was neither here nor there and could not be organized without his blessings.

“Besides Hon Olago has never been known for doing such,those are for my foot soldiers ,whoever told you that lied to you, besides don’t we presently fight a common enemy” Raila assured him.

Kalonzo seeing that the politician had conned him tried in vain to get in touch with her but she was not picking his calls then finally she switched off her phone.

Kalonzo men have vowed to teach her a severe lesson anywhere anytime they meet her as the incident occurred only few days after the said aspirant conned Water Minister Charity Ngilu undisclosed amount of money after lying to her that they could do importation and exportation of products.

Her problems has been further complicated as the said youths whose names were used are presently hunting her down demanding that she gives them the money since she used their names.

During the voting day upon being spotted at Works Yard polling station in Northward she huuriedly took off after being told that the youths were on her heels forcing her to return to Nairobi.

    The VP bribed a con artist. Does Hon Kalonzo not have confidence in our law enforcement institutions? Could they simply have reported this matter to the police or better still confront Hon Olago before the event.
    The VP’s judgement bothers me.
