In a strongly-worded statement, Mr Odinga said the action by Kanini Kega's Jubilee faction, which has since pledged loyalty to the President, is sponsored by “ the highest levels of the Kenya Kwanza regime”.
Describing the Jubilee faction’s demand as a “State-sponsored assault on multipartysm” that forms part of issues to be addressed by the bipartsan committee, Mr Odinga said the scheme is a continuing indication that Kenya Kwanza remains dishonest and contemptuous of the dialogue.
Azimio la Umoja One Kenya leader Raila Odinga has hit out at President William Ruto over a secret plot to scuttle the ongoing bipartisan talks that only resumed on Wednesday.
Mr Odinga accused President Ruto of allegedly being behind the latest attempts to derail the ongoing engagements by pushing the Jubilee Party faction led by East Africa Legislative Assembly MP Kanini Kega to demand inclusion in the 14-member bipartisan committee.
