The fall-out in Wiper Democratic Movement over county posts in its Ukambani stronghold escalated yesterday even as party leader Kalonzo Musyoka gave an assurance that all was well.

Wiper Chairman David Musila (Kitui Senator) and Vice Chairman Mutula Kilonzo Jnr accused Kalonzo of stoking fires within the party by appearing to favour incumbents for the gubernatorial contests in Kitui and Makueni counties.
