I would like to address the issues which have been raised and support the Chairman of Coast Parliamentary Group (CPG) on this matter. As people from the Coast we voted overwhelming for NASA and we are not going to be humiliated by the party. It comes a time when people break ranks and this is the moment where a party gets destroyed because of the kind of bias we are seeing. As the Coast people we deserve a seat among the top four leaders. We cannot have two Members from the same county sitting as leadership of the minority party. I want to state clearly that we have suffered marginalisation and exclusion in many ways but this time as the Coast people we are not going to accept this whether from the Government or within the party. I also want to make it very clear to the people who sat down and came up with this list that we do not recognise it. There are certain Members of the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) who think they are more ODM than others. I want to make it very clear that as the Coast people we will not and shall not accept party dictatorship."
