Clergy leaders from Lower Eastern region have criticized the “Koma declaration” that saw community leaders, professionals and elders vow to support Wiper party leader Kalonzo Musyoka's ambition to become the president in 2022.

Earlier this month, the Wiper Party leader met with several leaders in Machakos where he was endorsed to be president in 2022. However, Machakos Governor Alfred Mutua dismissed the forum saying it was a wiper affair.
