Two key members of former Prime Minister Raila Odinga’s 2013
election campaign team are now blaming each other over the way they
handled his unsuccessful presidential bid.
In a spat
that could reveal intricate details of the Cord presidential candidate’s
campaign machinery, Mr Eliud Owalo, who was the campaign manager, and
Mr Caroli Omondi, the chief of staff at the PM’s office, on Monday
disagreed over the fate of Sh94 million meant for election agents and
for the tallying centre to monitor votes for their boss during the March
4 polls.
Mr Owalo blamed Mr Omondi for running down
the campaign structure of the ODM leader, including making it difficult
for the campaign secretariat to work.
He claimed that
Mr Omondi was in charge of the Sh94 million released by Mr Odinga two
weeks to the election date to pay more than 20,000 agents at more than
31,000 polling stations designated by the Independent Electoral and
Boundaries Commission (IEBC).
