Nominated MP Isaac Mwaura has told ODM leaders to take whatever action they please against him for ditching the party.

"I am not bothered by whatever action the party will take against me because my conscience is clear. I had to follow the wishes of the people of Ruiru," said Mr Mwaura, who has since joined Jubilee Party.

The MP, who spoke during a thanksgiving service organised by local MP Jude Njomo at Ndumberi Stadium yesterday, put on a brave face saying he was not worried because he believed he had made the right decision.

"They can do whatever they want. The decision to leave ODM was a request from the people of Ruiru who I will be seeking to represent in Parliament after next year's polls. I could not have refused because vying in Ruiru on an ODM ticket would have been tricky," said Mwaura.

Last week, the MP told the ODM disciplinary committee led by Fred Athuok that he had defected "because my people decided".
