Wambugu questioned Azimio\u2019s ability to address the escalating cost of living in Kenya. This statement followed a protest led by Raila Odinga against the government in Nairobi. Wambugu\u2019s challenge raises important questions regarding Azimio\u2019s proposed solutions and calls for regarding the rising cost of living and recently passed finace bill.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/71a0227aefad4c1a918fc2b606ae2458\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Wambugu asks Azimio to consider what actions they would have taken to alleviate the cost of living if they had emerged victorious in the previous election. This hypothetical situation allows for a critical examination of Azimio\u2019s potential policies and provides an opportunity to evaluate their feasibility and effectiveness.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<span style=\"color: rgb(5, 5, 5);\">11 months ago Azimio lost an election. Assuming they had won what would they have done by today to reduce the cost of living? Why can\u2019t they share that option, so that Kenyans can compare what they lost versus what\u2019s there today?<\/span>\u201d He posted.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: rgb(5, 5, 5);\">Wambugu\u2019s subsequent statement highlights his belief that Azimio la Umoja cannot present a clear plan for reducing the cost of living because they understand the complexity and challenges associated with such a task. He compares Azimio\u2019s actions to the biblical story of the woman who suggested splitting the baby, implying that they are attempting to provoke division and unrest among Kenyans.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: rgb(5, 5, 5);\">\u201cThey can\u2019t. Because they know it wasn\u2019t going to be easy even if we had won. That\u2019s why all they do now is incite Kenyans against the government. Like the woman in the Bible they want us to \u2018split the Baby!\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: rgb(5, 5, 5);\">Now children are scared of going to school when Azimio is on the streets. Petrol stations are getting vandalized. Supermarkets are getting looted. Poor Kenyans are getting shot at by other poor Kenyans.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: rgb(5, 5, 5);\">All so that Raila &amp; his friends &amp; family can negotiate themselves into a space that allows them to influence the government \u2013 so that government can take care of their personal interests.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: rgb(5, 5, 5);\">This <\/span>#Upuz<span style=\"color: rgb(5, 5, 5);\"> must stop.\u201d Read the post<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: rgb(5, 5, 5);\">\u00a0<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/0a885c5e8dd64849b4c884bd132970a0\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0What is your take on the former Nyeri town Mp comments?<\/p>\n<p>Remember to Share!!!!!<\/p>\n<p>Content created and supplied by: Sirpeters (via  Opera<br \/>News )<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<p class=\"copyright hide\">\n<span class=\"content\">    ,  .   ,     .
