Monday, August 19, 2024 - Wiper Democratic Movement leader Kalonzo Musyoka has urged Raila Odinga to resign as Azimio One Kenya Alliance leader, citing his involvement with President William Ruto’s Kenya Kwanza Alliance government.
Addressing a presser in Embu on Sunday, Kalonzo maintained that Raila
Odinga cannot be the opposition leader yet he has joined the government.
“We wish Raila Odinga well in his
quest to become African Union Commission chair, but it is untenable that he
remains the opposition coalition's leader after some members of his party
joined the government," said Kalonzo.
At the same time, the former
vice president said the ODM party would not continue to hold minority
leadership in the National Assembly.
Kalonzo said the Azimio la Umoja
governing council would meet on Monday, to select the minority leader in
Parliament.
"The coalition's governing
council will be meeting tomorrow to determine who will be the official
opposition leader in Parliament as members of the ODM party cannot be in
government and hold the position at the same time," he stated.
