Kabando wa Kabando has welcomed retired President Uhuru Kenyatta’s declaration of support for Azimio La Umoja Coalition.
According to the former Mukurweini MP, Uhuru’s declaration was the best news for the Azimio outfit since August 2022.
“Uhuru’s declaration that he’ll be active in Azimio is the best news post 2022 elections,” he said on Saturday.
Wa Kabando also emphasized that strong opposition is very necessary in a nascent democracy, adding that the Raila-Uhuru oversight of the Kenya Kwanza Government is for the good of the country.
“Kenya will be much better with an organized strong official opposition. Raila-Uhuru’s oversight on UDA is potent! Good for Kenya!” Kabando stated.

The former head of state also affirmed his support for the opposition boss Raila Odinga and insisted that he will support him.
“Kustahafu sio kuchoka… ata wengine wanastahafu na nguvu zinaingozeka. Ata kama nimewacha siasa active, mimi bado ni mfuasi wa baba, akiniambia twende lazima twendwe,”Uhuru said.
He further explained that his support for Mr. Odinga was because he had good intentions for Kenyans and whatever he says he will follow and support him.
