Taita Taveta Senator Dan Mwanzo said it was time for Mr Odinga to give a chance to Mr Musyoka to run for presidency.

He said the ODM party should support the former vice president to be CORD’s flag bearer in the next general elections.

Mr Mwanzo at the same time urged Kibwezi West residents to elect Mr Kalembe Ndile as area MP on a TIP TIP ticket.

“This is not just a Kibwezi West by-election but a battle between Jubilee and Cord,” said Mr Mwanzo during a campaign rally in Makindu grounds.

Mr Mwanzo said they are certain that CORD will recapture all seats lost in election petitions.

Mr Kalembe urged residents to vote for him as he will develop the area.

Other contestants for the Kibwezi West parliamentary seat are former MP Patrick Musimba, an independent candidate and Ms Juliana Kisimbi of the PICK party.

The by election is set to take place on October 17, 2013.

Why wouldn't Kalonzo himself step down for Raila. This kind of thought will only weaken CORD and perhaps lead to its premature breakup. Leaders should seek to strengthen the movement and not to call for others to step aside. This is a selfish move from Mwanzo.
