Azimio to Form Shadow Cabinet to Keep Government in Check

Wiper Party boss Kalonzo Musyoka has said that Azimio la Umoja One Kenya coalition will announce shadow Cabinet secretaries to hold the government to account.

Moreover, Kalonzo Musyoka added that they will make the announcement once their leader Raila Odinga comes back into the country from his foreign tour to India.

He further mentioned that the cabinet will have a whole budget which they will present.

“We have only this country to call home, we have nowhere else to go. We must have each other’s back and make sure the government delivers to the people,” noted the wiper boss.

The Wiper leader also added that the coalition will play its opposition role to the best of its ability.

“We want to ask the President not to get angry when we do our duty.” He said

Nonetheless, Kalonzo Musyoka made these remarks on Saturday, October 22 at the burial ceremony of the late Stanley Aluma Omollo, the father of Homa Bay Town MP Peter Kaluma.

Additionally, former National Assembly Speaker Kenneth Marende would have been the Senate Speaker, while former Kakamega Governor Wycliffe Oparanya would be the National Treasury CS.

Nonetheless, Peter Munya would have retained his slot as Agriculture CS but have an additional role as Chairperson of the Kenya Productive Sector.

Furthermore, former Mombasa Governor Ali Hassan Joho would be Lands CS and part of his responsibilities would be to fight historical land injustices at the Coast and across the country.
