Former Mukurweini MP Kabando Wa Kabando has laughed off claims that Azimio leader Raila Odinga beat President William Ruto in Nyeri.

The politician, who vied for the Nyeri senate seat in the August 9 polls, said such a suggestion by the so-called IEBC whistleblower is a lie.

He said he particularly lost his Nyeri senate bid because of his association with Azimio.

"Our biggest curse is greed that breeds corruption, plus politics of chicanery. 2022, I vigorously campaigned and voted for Raila Odinga," he tweeted.

"I also vied for Senator @narckenya but lost largely for being in Azimio. For IEBC "whistleblower" to claim Baba defeated Ruto in Nyeri is a lie."

The ex-MP said while he will remain steadfast in his support for Azimio, he will not entertain politics of 'deception'.

"I'll steadfastly support my party leader @MarthaKarua and opposition leader @RailaOdinga in zealous oversight of Ruto's regime. But I vehemently reject the politics of deception," he said.

The politician also regretted that some politicians had misled Raila that there was a deep state that was to help him to win the presidency in the last polls.

"Azimio 'alumni' must admit delusions of the so-called deep state system delivering a victory for #Baba," he said.

Raila's Azimio has claimed that a report by an IEBC insider shows that he won the last presidential election by over 2 million votes.

Raila has called for the servers to be opened for him to 'confirm' how he defeated Ruto in the contest.
