Tuesday, January 28, 2025 - Wiper Leader Kalonzo Musyoka has also cast doubts on former Prime Minister Raila Odinga’s chances of winning the African Union Commission (AUC) chairmanship in the upcoming elections.
Speaking yesterday, Kalonzo
claimed that President William Ruto’s mission in Haiti could cost Raila the AUC
chairmanship.
He claimed that some African
leaders had reservations over the mission and might use that excuse to deny
Raila the chance to lead the African Union.
According to Kalonzo, some of
the African heads of state were concerned that the Kenyan police could be used
to violate the human rights of the citizens of Haiti.
He noted that those were some of
the reasons why they were opposed to the police mission to Haiti.
Nonetheless, he wished the
former premier well in his bid for the AUC seat.
"The one thing that is
becoming an obstacle for Raila at the AU is the Haiti mission. He is being
asked why an African country would go and harm blacks in a faraway
country."
"Raila is a candidate of
the Kenyan government. However, we are praying for him," Kalonzo said.
Kenya police officers were
deployed to Haiti amid resistance from some political leaders and human rights
leaders.
