Mandago lashes out at Atwoli

Uasin Gishu boss Jackson Mandago has lashed out at COTU Secretary General Francis Atwoli that he has outlived his usefulness as Cotu secretary general and should quit the umbrella workers' organisation.
While speaking on Sunday Mandago said
Atwoli was being used to cause divisions in Jubilee.
“Just recently I heard him advising the President to wind up Jubilee because of alleged wrangles in the party. He should first go and fold up Cotu before poking his nose into Jubilee affairs.”

The governor was speaking at AIC Kamasai Fellowship Church in Tinderet.

“It’s time he quits Cotu. I wonder why unions affiliated to Cotu think it’s only Atwoli who can be the secretary general. Let them get someone who is young and focused because Atwoli has lost direction,” Mandago said.

Last month Atwoli got into trouble with Rift Valley leaders after he said DP William Ruto’s name will not be on the ballot paper come 2022.
