Kiraitu also said he was happy with the political developments at national level and was grateful to Raila for dropping his earlier radical position. Kathuri said the new pact had created a national political storm leaving Kalonzo, Wetangula and Mudavadi wailing loudly for inclusion into national dialogue. Dawood said Jubilee was delighted that the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) leadership had already expressed its desire to work with the ruling party. "This will make the work in parliament pretty easy and unlock ideas that would have been entangled in partisan politics," said Kathuri. Kiraitu also said the new pact posed no political danger to deputy president William Ruto as all politicians will have their rightful positions in the new dispensation.
