Raila's Message to Kenyans Hours After Swearing-in

NASA leader Raila Odinga was sworn-in as the 'people's president' on Tuesday at Uhuru Park grounds in front of thousands of opposition supporters.

Hours after the event, Odinga took to Twitter to appreciate all those who availed themselves and thanked them for having confidence in NASA.

"I wish to thank the people of Kenya for the mandate they have given us and for their steadfast confidence in us.

"You came from all corners of the republic to witness my inauguration and it was good to see you out in millions," he wrote.

Odinga further told the country that they had arrived in Canaan

"Most of all I thank the good Lord, my family and all those who have undertaken this journey with us.

"We have arrived in Canaan; thank you for staying the course with us. Asanteni sana (thank you very much)."

On Tuesday evening, NASA co-principals Kalonzo Musyoka, Moses Wetangula, and Musalia Mudavadi broke their silence after their notable absence during the swearing-in.

The three co-principals declined to offer an explanation for missing out on the Opposition's ceremony.

They, however, stated they were firmly in NASA as members of the coalition's summit.

Hinting at possible discord within the coalition, the three leaders explained that the co-principals had failed to meet on Tuesday morning ahead of the swearing-in.

They reassured NASA supporters that the failed meeting would be held again on Friday to iron out "immense challenges facing this country."
