Self-declared National Resistance Movement (NRM) General Miguna Miguna on Monday distanced the opposition wing from the decision to postpone National Super Alliance (NASA) Raila Odinga's 'swearing-in' as the 'people's president.'

Thorugh his social media account, the outspoken politician declared that NRM was not in agreement with the decision to postpone Mr Odinga's inauguration.

"The NRM wishes to state that it had no role in the "postponement" of the swearing in of The People's President made by Mudavadi yesterday. That was NASA's decision. NRM will give a way forward in the next day or so. Please remain calm and focused," he tweeted.

In a separate tweet, he hit out at US ambassador to Kenya Bob Godec who congratulated NASA for postponing the 'swearing-in.'

"Mr. Bob Godec, you have no moral authority to speak about "positive developments." You are an accomplice to Jubilee's electoral theft and the barbaric Kenyan police and Mungiki mass murder and genocide against unarmed civilians. NRM rejects your hypocrisy," he lashed out.

Earlier on Sunday, Miguna called for the NASA leadership to delink the NASA coalition and the NRM.

In a tweet, Miguna declared that NASA should engage in dialogue with other players while NRM focuses on 'the revolution'.

He stated: "To Raila Odinga, Musalia Mudavadi and Stephen Kalonzo Musyoka: The time to delink NRM and NASA is now.

"Let NASA pursue dialogue as NRM leads the revolution. Those in support shout  'Aye!'" Miguna declared.
