Now or never for dialogue with NASA-Kalonzo warns Uhuru

National Super Alliance (NASA) co-principal Kalonzo Musyoka on Friday once again told President Uhuru Kenyatta that the two main political formations in the country must dialogue to resolve the current political impasse.

Speaking in Machakos, Kalonzo reiterated that President Kenyatta must heed to the oppositions calls for dialogue because according to him the country is highly polarized along tribal lines.

“You cannot run away from dialogue it must be serious, genuine, structured dialogue because electoral justice must be achieved in this country,’ said Kalonzo.

The former Vice President said that he is appealing to President Kenyatta to reach out to opposition leader Raila Odinga or himself because it is his duty as a president to unite the country.

“The country is headed in the wrong direction and they (government leaders) should not threaten us with treason charges because we must fight for what is just,” said Kalonzo.

The Wiper Party leader warned that the country is on the verge of conflict because of the constant bickering between political leaders from different regions in the country.

“I have travelled vastly and I have been a mediator in warring countries like South Sudan, Somalia, Burundi. I have observed that Kenya has the toppings of a country that is almost in conflict,” added Kalonzo.

“I have just talked to American ambassador to Kenya Robert Godec at Robert Mbui’s residence and he refuted claims appearing in sections of the media today,” Kalonzo said in reference to a report where the diplomat was quoted as having thrown his weight behind President Kenyatta.
