Khalwale warns Raila, Kalonzo over EALA appointments
Kakamega Senator Bonny Khalwale has warned Nasa flag bearer Raila Odinga and his running mate Kalonzo Musyoka against sending their relatives to the East African Legislative Assembly.
Reports had indicated that ODM was nominating Odinga’s brother, Oburu Oginga, while Wiper was to nominate Musyoka’s eldest son Kennedy Musyoka to the regional assembly.
I can't believe @RailaOdinga & @skmusyoka would ever dare imagine taking brother & son to EALA. It falls flat on the face on inclusivity

On Monday, Oburu said he had withdrawn his interest from the slot. There has been no update from Wiper.
Odinga and Musyoka have teamed up with Musalia Mudavadi, Moses Wetangula and Isaac Ruto under Nasa to form a coalition against Jubilee’s President Uhuru Kenyatta and his deputy William Ruto.
Nasa is established on the platform of inclusivity after its leaders accused Jubilee of discriminating against other communities.
Twitter users agreed with Dr Khalwale.
@KBonimtetezi @RailaOdinga @skmusyoka I concur with you meshimiwa. They should preserve the slots to other tribes who are in NASA but are not included in the pentagon like Kisiis

Others, however, warned the senator to expect betrayal.
@KBonimtetezi @RailaOdinga @skmusyoka that’s why this NASA will not be a solution to Kenya. Hao ndo viongozi jameni? #NASWA
