Tuesday, April 4, 2023-Former Prime Minister Raila Odinga has said he wants to share the government with President William Ruto the same way he shared with late Mwai Kibaki in 2008 after the 2007 post-election violence.
Addressing a press conference on Tuesday, Raila, who is also
the Azimio One Kenya Alliance leader and Orange Democratic Movement(ODM) supremo
hinted at talks similar to those held by UN Secretary-General Koffi Anan in
2008 saying it will address several issues they are interested in.
"It is the resolution of this meeting that a purely
Parliamentary process will not serve the intended end, our suggestion is to
have a conversation at the national level through a process akin to the 2008
National Accord," Raila said.
Raila and his Azimio stalwarts also proposed that a team be drawn from its ranks
both in Parliament and outside Bunge and that the cost of living issues should
be a top priority.
"To this end, the coalition proposes a team drawn from
its rank both in Parliament and outside Bunge, we want it to be a process that
are people driven," Raila said.
Political pundits have said Raila wants to share the
government with Ruto the same way he shared the government with late former
President Mwai Kibaki in 2008
