Uhuru Given New Solution to Stop Raila's Swearing-in

National Super Alliance (NASA) coalition has remained adamant about proceeding with the controversial swearing-in of Raila Odinga as the People's President on January 30.

Speaking to the press on Thursday, People's Assembly Organising Committee led by David Ndii noted that they would consider suspending the swearing-in if the President will admit that the October 26 election was a sham.

“If Uhuru admits the October election was a sham, we might consider having a conversation to see whether it is worth suspending the swearing-in. But that admission has to be significant and agree to repudiate the election and illegitimate presidency,” Ndii commented.

Ndii, however, explained that they will proceed with the People's Assembly process and engage with Kenyans who are convinced that electoral justice is necessary for a stable, fair, prosperous and stable nation.

Ndii also added categorically that they intend to lead an open, inclusive, transformational, people-driven dialogue that is determined to ensure every vote counts in Kenya.

“We reiterate that the swearing in is a reclamation of the NASA presidential election victory of August 8, 2017, which the Supreme Court of Kenya validated by annulling the Uhuru Kenyatta win. Jubilee then carried out a sham election and a coup on the people of Kenya on October 26th and is now exercising an illegitimate Presidency,” reiterated Ndii.

NASA has planned pre-inauguration activities by convening Luo Nyanza People's Consultative Forum to be hosted by Homa Bay county on Friday.

According to the strategist, the Luo Nyanza Assembly will deliberate on how to remake this nation so that it works for all citizens.

“We are convinced that this country has no future if we do not agree on how to share power and exercise it responsibly; how to share opportunities equitably and above all how to co-exist peacefully as distinct communities brought together by the cruel fate of colonialism," he highlighted.

However, NASA is yet to announce where the inauguration will take place following the closing of the Uhuru Park for renovations.
