Mr Odinga says ODM stands to benefit from the ‘Handshake’ as it will give the party a bargaining chip
Party delegates resolve to back Mr Odinga in supporting the president.
Opposition chief Raila Odinga has moved to put his house in order ahead of the presidential elections in 2022 and rallied his supporters to vote in only ODM candidates in various positions in next year’s General Election.
In a meeting characterised by a stinging rebuke of his critics in the region and an explanation of his ‘Handshake’ with President Kenyatta, Mr Odinga rallied his troops and put on notice any opposition within his ranks.
