What you need to know:

  • Nation has also established that the President seeks to use the platform to rally his UDA party to back his plans to work with opposition leader Raila Odinga in a ‘cooperation arrangement’ with the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM).
  • The meeting is also likely to firm up the proposed leadership of committees in the National Assembly. The House on Wednesday adopted the list of the newly constituted committee members that seeks to align with the broad-based government that President Ruto and Mr Odinga have struck.

President William Ruto has summoned his United Democratic Alliance (UDA) legislators to the State House for a Parliamentary Group (PG) meeting on Friday morning.

A text message by National Assembly Majority Whip Sylvanus Osoro to the MPs indicates that the President will first have breakfast with the members before holding a PG.
