Saturday, February 12, 2022 – President Uhuru Kenyatta has urged Kenyans to start preparing for a Raila Odinga presidency, saying he is the best placed presidential candidate to succeed him in August.
Speaking at State House, Nairobi on Friday when he met over 3000 youths, Uhuru who is also Jubilee Party leader, said his party will join Raila Odinga’s Azimio La Umoja and form a formidable alliance ahead of the August 9th poll.
Uhuru also said Raila Odinga is his preferred successor and said he cannot support Deputy President William Ruto.
“And because some were politicking while work was ongoing, we have said we want a coalition unit of like-minded parties and together we join Azimio.
“We have the candidate, we have the resources and the youth are together with us,” the President stated amid cheers from the youth.
The President lamented that Ruto and his confidants in Jubilee Party, mostly drawn from the Mt Kenya region, put his development agenda at crossroads.
He also noted that he was ready to actively campaign and secure victory for Azimio la Umoja.
He added that the coalition would put the interests of the youth at the forefront.
