Wiper Deputy Party Leader Farah Maalim was on Wednesday, January 15, expelled from the party following his recent remarks about the ongoing abductions.
The party leader Kalonzo Musyoka made the announcement during a press conference.
“For the avoidance of doubt, Farah Maalim, who until now has been serving as deputy party leader of Wiper Democratic Party, stands expelled from the party for violating the Constitution and the rights of Kenyans and even abusing Kenyan mothers,” Kalonzo declared.
“He used to be a reformist and I campaigned for him in Dadaab. Therefore, it doesn’t give me any pleasure. Even if there is that law in the Constitution that stipulates unless someone resigns in writing, he will still sit there. Just like those MPs in Parliament who were impeached by Gen Zs in June and hold no authority in Parliament,” Kalonzo added.
The Dadaab Member of Parliament has consistently been making remarks echoing President William Ruto’s call to parents to ‘tame’ their children.
Maalim went ahead to state that the President will be re-elected in 2027, a stance which is contrary to the opposition party (Wiper Democratic Party)
“When you see everything progressing and then some fools say ‘Kasongo Ruto must go.’ To hell with those who say that! Is he sitting in your mother’s or father’s seat? He is sitting in our seat, and we will re-elect him; we will deliver 99 per cent or even 100 per cent. We are saying Ruto will stay until 2032,” Maalim stated in a recent address.
