Martha Karua Offers Advice To Uhuru and Raila

Narc-Kenya Party Leader Martha Karua has offered advice on how President Uhuru Kenyatta and National Super Alliance (NASA) leader Raila Odinga can kickstart a national dialogue process.

She noted that the two ought to drop their hardline stances for the talks to start, blaming the current situation in the country on succession politics ahead of the 2022 General Election.

The former Gichugu MP stated: "We must admit we have issues unresolved related to electoral fraud and how we manage our politics. These are not issues IEBC can solve alone without the players.

"If we allow electoral fraud now, we can forget 2022 and just ask the Jubilee administration to tell us who is next and they are already telling us they are next," she went on to add.

She asserted that the dialogue process should be national and involve religious leaders as well.

"Power is a shared space even by the very design of the constitution...are we saying that when you win elections, the space you have won becomes yours to the exclusion of those you are competing with?" Karua questioned.

Karua lost in the Kirinyaga Gubernatorial contest to Jubilee Party's Anne Waiguru.

She has been vocal about the need for a dialogue process to take place following the contested August 8 and October 26 elections.

President Uhuru Kenyatta was declared President-elect in the repeat poll, garnering 98% of all votes cast.

Following the withdrawal of his candidature from the race, NASA leader Raila Odinga declared that the Kenyatta-led administration was illegitimate and announced the formation of a resistance movement.
