[Collins Oduor, Standard]Senate Minority Leader James Orengo has accused President Uhuru Kenyatta’s lieutenants at Harambee House of trying to derail ODM leader Raila Odinga’s presidential journey. He said similar strategies were used during Mzee Jomo Kenyatta’s tenure when a clique of Mt Kenya mafia sought to prevent Daniel Moi from taking over State House. Amollo also warned the Harambee House ‘gang’ against back-peddling Kenyans’ effort for a united country under the BBI. Otiende and Orengo also took issue with violence during Thursday’s by-elections, saying the Harambee House team failed to ensure security. Earlier in another function, Orengo hinted Raila that would vie for presidency next year.
