Dadaab MP Mohamed Dahiye ditched ODM and joined Kanu because NASA did not name a presidential candidate and the “squabbles” on who will be flagbearer are working to the advantage of Jubilee Party. Kanu is an affiliate of JP, while ODM is part of the National Super Alliance. This is the first time the MP has spoken on the issue since he decamped from ODM. Dahiye said he does not regret leaving ODM and it is the wish of every leader for his constituents’ needs to be met. Dahiye, until his recent defection, was one of the most loyal ODM members in Garissa alongside Balambala MP Abdikadir Aden.
