Azimio la Umoja One Kenya Coalition has said it will hold more rallies and meetings aimed at pressing President William Ruto to vacate office.
The Raila Odinga led coalition will hold a rally at Kamukunji grounds in Kibra on Sunday, February 5 a week after holding a similar one at Jacaranda grounds in Embakasi.
National Assembly Minority Leader Opiyo Wandayi said the rally will also be used to find a way of making sure the Kenya Kwanza government finds a solution to the challenges Kernyans are facing.

“We wish to inform our supporters, the general public and all Kenyans who feel for our country that our People’s Baraza are set to continue this week and the weeks that follow. On Sunday, February 5, 2023, we will hold a Baraza at the Kamukunji grounds in Kibra Constituency. This will be followed by another Baraza on Friday February 10, 2023, this time in Mavoko, Machakos County,” the minority leader said.
Azimio also wants to use the meetings to push the government to engage them on how best to constitute the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC).
This comes after the former Prime Minister said Azimio will continue with the “public consultative” meetings after his return from Nigeria and Senegal with the next stops in Kamukunji in Kibra and Machakos Town as part of the countrywide rallies.
“We demand that the Kenya Kwanza government resigns immediately. There can be no peace without electoral justice. The election outcome must be respected and that’s why we are saying Ruto must go,” he said.
Narc Kenya leader Martha Karua said they will not accept intimidation from the Kenya Kwanza government in their pursuit of justice.
“Ruto must go. Raila won the elections and Ruto should pack and go home. This fight is not about Raila but about you Kenyans. You would have been going to school for free now if Raila’s victory was not stolen,” Karua said.
Wiper party leader Kalonzo Musyoka said their meetings are aimed at ending the culture of election theft in the country.
“We will not be played with again. We will be peaceful in our meetings,” he said.
