Vihiga Senator George Khaniri has finally broken his political silence and accused ANC leader Musalia Mudavadi and Ford Kenya’s Moses Wetang’ula of failing to consult other leaders in the region on their decision to work with Deputy President William Ruto.

Instead, Mr Khaniri, one of the two elected ANC senators, rallied the communities in Western Kenya to support ODM leader Raila Odinga’s presidential bid, pointing out that in joining DP Ruto, Mr Mudavadi and Mr Wetang’ula had acted out of their personal interests.
