Wanga Says ODM Will Defend Ruto, Back His Agenda
Homa Bay Governor Gladys Wanga has urged ODM supporters to fully support the broad-based government, saying the benefits of the new working relationship between ODM and President William Ruto’s administration will soon materialise.
Speaking during a public meeting at Pala Koguta in Ndhiwa Constituency, Homa Bay County, Wanga said ODM will stand by the Memorandum of Understanding signed with the Ruto-led Kenya Kwanza coalition.
“We support the government and the programmes the President is rolling out. We know we might not see the results immediately, but the improvements taking place in our health sector will soon be evident. Even though there have been teething problems with SHA, the programme is picking up and will soon transform our people’s healthcare,” Wanga stated.
Wanga, who is also the ODM Chairperson, warned politicians against attacking Raila Odinga, insisting that the party will not tolerate insults directed at its leader or President Ruto.
“If you insult Baba, you insult us. If you disrespect Baba, we will also disrespect you. But since we are in the broad-based government, we will also protect the President and speak for him and his programmes,” she said.
The governor also used the opportunity to rally support for the upcoming Madaraka Day celebrations, which will be hosted in Homa Bay on June 1.
“On June 1, Homa Bay will be privileged to host this year’s Madaraka Day, and we want to welcome everybody. Our people are hospitable, and we want to take this opportunity to welcome everyone,” she said.
