Late Malava MP Malulu Injendi’s son, Ryan Injendi, has blamed Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi after losing out on the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) nominations.
While speaking on September 21, Ryan accused Mudavadi of influencing the UDA primaries in Malava.
He went on to note that he did not see President Ruto or his aide, Farouk Kibet, intervening in the party primaries.

However, he claimed that officials from Mudavadi’s office meddled in the nomination exercise, leading to his loss.
“We were with the Honorable Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi, and we wanted to come to an understanding, but in the President’s opinion, he said we should go for party nominations. During all that time, I never saw the President’s hand or Farouk Kibet anywhere trying to support a particular person. But what is very surprising is the people from the Office of the Prime Cabinet Secretary, what were you doing in Malava, fighting a young man like me? Why didn’t you allow the people of Malava to conduct their election on their own?” he questioned.
Ryan conceded defeat in the UDA primaries and congratulated David Ndakwa, who emerged victorious in the nominations.
He further stated that he will continue supporting the Kenya Kwanza government and President Ruto.
