Kalonzo names Andrew Ole Sunkuli as his running mate

This comes after Kalonzo defected from the Azimio-One Kenya coalition after missing out on the coalition's party running mate slot.

Addressing the media on Monday, Kalonzo indicated that he decided to jump ship after being shortchanged in the Azimio alliance where he hoped to be picked as Raila Odinga’s running mate.

“My brother Raila knows I am naming my running mate. He came to my house to try and convince me to accept his choice. We did not agree and he said he would choose Martha and I told him I would choose my own running mate," he said.

"My honest opinion is that OKA continues as originally established and we move on, compare notes. We have business to save this nation,” said Kalonzo.

Meanwhile, Kalonzo has been promised a Chief Minister slot in Raila Odinga's cabinet should the Azimio leader win in the August 9 polls.
