Nairobi — The United Democratic Alliance now says there is no legal agreement with the Amani National Congress (ANC) and Ford Kenya.

Party chairman Johnstone Muthama revealed that the political outfits in the Kenya Kwanza Alliance are just political friends.

“As a party we stand by making sure democracy takes places either through nominations or issuance of nomination certificates. What was reported is not something that was discussed between UDA and the other parties,” he stated during a press conference at his Gigiri offices.

Muthama was reacting to a report on the standard newspaper that outlined a power sharing formula between the three political outfits.

Muthama insisted that the question on whether they party led by Deputy President William Ruto will not field candidates in different political zones in favor of a certain party should not be considered.

“There is no coalition agreement that has been arrived between the three political parties. What is there is that we are friends, and we will continue talking, we will continue doing things together. When time of agreeing on coalition terms comes, then the issue will be dealt with,” he said.

Political jitters had emerged from political leaders from western region in the UDA party after the entrant of Ford Kenya and ANC who enjoy a major political backing in the region.

“When the right time comes for signing the coalition agreement, you will be informed of the steps we will take,” the UDA party chairman.

Last weekend, UDA Secretary General Veronica Maina said details of the cooperation with ANC’s Musalia Mudavadi and FORD Kenya’s Moses Wetangula will be unveiled at an appropriate time.
