Raila Now Rocks Talks Boat With Fresh Demands; Ichungwah Calls for Arrest of These Top Leaders Over Bomas Chaos After Trump Arrest & Raila Reveals What The Govt Is Now Planning To Do After Realizing That They Want To Access Servers

Good morning,

The United Democratic Alliance (UDA) party has accused opposition leader Raila Odinga of an attempt to frustrate proposed dialogue with the Kenya Kwanza administration after he made new demands on Tuesday, April 4.

The Azimio la Umoja – One Kenya coalition leader claimed on Tuesday evening that President William Ruto’s proposal for a parliamentary approach to address issues raised by the opposition in their mass protests recently “may not serve its intended purpose”.

In a statement, the former prime minister stated that the Azimio leadership wants to have a conversation at the national level through a process akin to the 2008 National Accord, which was brokered by Koffi Annan following the disputed 2007 presidential election results.

But in a quick rejoinder, UDA Secretary General Cleophas Malala said Raila’s remarks had confirmed the ruling party’s worst fears that recent the recent demonstrations pushing for electoral and economic reforms were not genuine “but a blatant thirst and hunger for power through the back door”.

Do you think President Ruto’s olive branch extended to the opposition will bear any fruit?
