Speaking on K24, Ngunyi described Namwamba as the rising star in Luhyaland and Kenya as a whole who will eventually deliver the people of Mulembe to Canaan. He likened the fiery legislator to DP William Ruto who ignored retired president Daniel Arap Moi and went on to be his own man thus the second most powerful person in Kenya at the moment. He said that DP William Ruto knew his time was up to get out of the shadow of Moi and he said Ababu too must do the same otherwise his overstay under Mzee Raila Odinga will cost him just like Musalia Mudavadi. He noted that Namwamba had all it takes to silence Mzee Raila Odinga in Western since he has proved capable of uniting Luhyas to speak in one voice something that has never happened since time immemorial. At the same time Ngunyi rubbished Senator Moses Wetangula’s political clout in Luhyaland saying unlike Ababu Namwamba who is a self made politician Senator Wetangula is a test tube baby who has no roots on the ground and as such he can never be the de-facto Luhya leader and neither can he salvage Mzee Raila Odinga in Western now that Luhyas have begun to open their eyes. Its important to note that Senator Wetangula has suddenly gone silent since Ababu's outbursts. “In all these, Namwamba will emerge as the Luhya kingpin. And for Wetangula, he just doesn’t have what it takes as he is a test tube politician created by Daniel Moi and recycled by Raila Odinga. He is just a nobody in Western,” said Ngunyi. Mr.Ngunyi went on to say that Kakamega Senator Bonny Khalwale is a better leader than Wetangula since he too is carving his own path politically and said Senator Khalwale and Ababu are the future leadership of mulembe people capable of uniting them and bring respect to the community since they have been a laughing stock politically for far too long. Mulembe people is the only community from the big five who who don't reason alike hence diminishing their bargaining power. Time will tell.
