Former Machakos Senator, Johnstone Muthama has disclosed his impact on Wiper party leader Kalonzo Musyoka's political career.
The vocal politician has stirred headlines by conveying that he's been instrumental in guiding Kalonzo Musyoka on the next political step to take. Speaking of his efforts to see former Vice president ascend to a senior government position, Muthama has stated that he harbors plenty and more, a myriad of information worth writing a book about.
The former senator appears meditative while addressing Kalonzo's 2007 presidential bid. He said that he attempted to enter the political terrain as an elected Member of Parliament in 2007 when Kalonzo Musyoka was deep in the belly of his presidential campaigns.

Muthama claims having drummed up support for Kalonzo Musyoka, spending heavily so that the wiper party leader could levitate to presidency.
He further reveals that he spent a whopping amount paying for the agents who represented Kalonzo Musyoka in polling stations.
He'd later realize the mind-bending failure that awaited the former Vice President and therefore, the mild Muthama openly told Kalonzo that he's going to lose and that he'll help him gain entry into Kibaki's regime. The former senator claims having used his close relationship with the then head of state to cushion Kalonzo from the opposition cold. That stated, Kalonzo became a Vice President as Muthama started out as a deputy government chief whip.
"In 2013, I worked for him because he could not become anything alone. And I don't want to say here what happened between him, Ruto and Uhuru, " stated Muthama.
Muthama yet again masked Kalonzo's failure by engaging Raila for him to accept Kalonzo as his running mate. And so he did.
From his utterance, Muthama renders Kalonzo as a maladjusted politician with a dwindling generosity. He states, that instead of Kalonzo appreciating his efforts all he does is criticize him.
