Doomed and shackled up, Malala hopes for 'bigger things' ahead

In 2013, Cleophas Malala tried his luck in politics and won the Mahiakalo ward seat on an ODM ticket. He then jumped ship to ANC in 2017 and bagged the Kakamega Senate seat.

On Tuesday when he conceded defeat to Fernandes Barasa in the Kakamega governorship race, Malala hinted that he was geared up for bigger things, but only if UDA leader William Ruto will be president.

"Apart from seeking the governorship, my other aim and that of Kenya Kwanza in Kakamega was to weed out ODM. We have tried and Ruto got 160,000 votes from Kakamega alone, that is worth a reward in his government," said Malala.
