Days after Wiper unveiled Muthama's ex-wife as the candidate for the upcoming Machakos by-election, Kalembe Ndile has pronounced his enthusiastic support for the Wiper's fronted candidate Ms. Kavindu.
For clarity, Ms. Kavindu vied for the Machakos women representative seat on the Jubilee party ticket in 2017.
The former lawmaker for Kibwezi acknowledged Ms. Kavindu as a compulsive leader who has the thirst for uplifting the wellbeing of her people.

Kalembe Ndile proclaimed that the former wife to Muthama has the political might that will allow for her to battle it out with other candidates, especially the one who will be unveiled by Muthama's party.
Mr. Ndile responded to claims that the former Vice president hasn't been on the forefront in the fight against unemployment, affirming that Kalonzo has proved the critics wrong by fielding Ms. Kavinda who is a squatter with no employment.
The upcoming Machakos by-election has offered up yet another angle to the messy political divorce between Kalonzo and Muthama.
Directing his admission to Johnson Muthama who broke ranks with Kalonzo to join DP Ruto camp, Mr. Ndile was quoted saying, "It's not enough to take your wife to court for a divorce. The Kamba wives belong to the clan. They don't belong to us as individuals."
He argued that marriage within the Kamba tradition allowed for the wife to be considered a member of the clan regardless of her turbulent partnership with her husband.
In a brassy tone, the former lawgiver claimed that Ms. Kavindu is the rightful wife of the former Machakos senator because they willingly bore children who belong to the clan. He further urged Muthama not to allow the divorce papers to blind him from seeing reality.
He proclaimed that when a man finds a dashing second wife he shouldn't despise her first wife for he might need her assistance in the future.
