If Raila becomes President, he will fix Uhuru - Moses Kuria
By Joshua Cheloti
Gatundu South Member of Parliament Moses Kuria has questioned the willingness of former Prime Minister Raila Odinga to keep his end of the bargain concerning a power sharing deal within the Azimio la Umoja coalition.
Raila is the Azimio presidential candidate, in a coalition that brings together at least 30 political parties.
According to Moses Kuria, there is an agreement within the coalition that gives the Jubilee party under the leadership of President Uhuru Kenyatta a 40 per cent share of the government should Raila win the presidency.
The MP further says, according to the alleged agreement, Raila's ODM party and Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka will share the remaining 60 percent equally amongst themselves.

This is an agreement that Moses Kuria who is supporting Deputy President William Ruto says Raila can never implement.
"In the unlikely event Raila becomes President, he will do Uhuru Kenyatta a good one. So Uhuru thinks he will get 40% of government and Kalonzo 30% and Raila is left to share 30% among his ODM base after fighting for 60 years to be President between himself and his father?" He asked in a post on his Facebook page.
The MP gave an example of what happened in the Democratic Republic of Congo as a similar situation that might be witnesed in the country should Azimio la Umoja get to power.
He claimed it was the ODM leader who coached the current DR Congo President to fix his predecessor.
"It was Raila Odinga who chartered a plane to DRC to coach Felix Tshisekedi on how to fix Joseph Kabila who though Tshisekedi was his project," Kuria who doubles up as the Chama Cha Kazi party leader said.
"Hata Baba hapangwingwi," he added.
Uhuru declared support for Raila's presidential bid, throwing his Deputy, William Ruto under the bus.
DP Ruto allies have been claiming the President's move was a plot to remain in power beyond his two terms, with others saying Raila was Uhuru's project.
Raila has since dismissed the project tag, insisting that he is the people's projects.
