Uhuruto told to keep off western Kenya

Kakamega Governor Wycliffe Oparanya has told Jubilee to stop campaigning in Western region terming it a CORD zone.

He said the Luhya community had resolved to vote for Opposition chief Raila Odinga because Jubilee has not fulfilled its pledges to them.

"We are already preparing for a Raila Odinga presidency next year. Raila must win this time round. Our people are not supporting Uhuru Kenyatta also because of rampant corruption in the Jubilee administration," said Oparanya, who also serves as one of ODM's deputy party leaders. The other one is his Mombasa counterpart Ali Hassan Joho.

Oparanya's pronouncement is likely to ruffle feathers in Musalia Mudavadi's Amani National Congress (ANC) camp.
