Friday, February 4, 2022 – Lugari MP Ayub Savula has urged ODM Leader Raila Odinga to spend money if he wants to beat Deputy President William Ruto at the ballot come August, or else he should forget the presidency.
Speaking during an interview, the former Amani National Congress (ANC) deputy party leader, who has expressed interest to succeed outgoing Kakamega Governor Wycliffe Oparanya in the August 9 General Election, said a lot of the money meant for the political campaign goes into bribing the electorate, failure to which one stands no chance of winning.
“Forget about logistics, logistics is about a car and fuel. The main cash goes to bribes and that is a fact. You cannot win an election without giving money to the electorate,” Savula said.
Savula, who recently decamped from ANC to DAP-K Party that is part of Raila Odinga’s Azimio after Musalia Mudavadi joined forces with Deputy President William Ruto, sensationally revealed that he used more than KSh 45 million campaigning for his parliamentary seat.
He said a single political rally could cost him up to KSh 500,000 depending on the size of the crowd in attendance.
He said in his Lugari constituency after he is done selling his manifesto, voters used to queue and his men would bribe each voter KSh 100.
“If you go to a rally you must have an average of KSh 400-500 thousand depending on the crowd that will be there.”
“You will not be seen dishing out the money because it is against the law but what you will do; you sit in your car and watch.”
“In Lugari, I was giving out KSh 1000 shilling note to 10 people but you look at others you cannot give them KSh 100.”
“Those people who appear to be most influential you give them a higher amount,” Savula revealed.
Savula further said that those influential people who form part of the aspirants’ campaign team are given between KSh 2000 and KSh 5,000 depending on how influential they are.
