KANU Secretary General Tony Gachoka has openly accused Wiper Patriotic Front (WPF) leader Kalonzo Musyoka of being the primary obstacle to Nairobi senator Edwin Sifuna's quest to fly the united opposition's presidential flag.
Gachoka, who is eyeing the Nairobi gubernatorial seat, argued that Kalonzo has been in politics for a long time and should use his remaining political capital to build a legacy rather than block a younger candidate he believes has stronger public support.

The KANU official went further, arguing that Kalonzo's continued rivalry with Sifuna was directly benefiting former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, whom he described as a third party keen to exploit divisions within the opposition.
