Opposition Leader Raila Odinga has continued to state that he has a plan to save the country that has now been marred by grave allegations of corruption within government.
Speaking in an interview with Nation, the ODM Leader outlined how he plans to save the country from going downhill.
He stated that Kenyans will have to decide whether "we have a country or not."
"As a country, we will have to decide whether we would rather let corruption continue for the sake of peace, or fight corruption no matter the consequences," Raila told reporters, referring to claims that the fight against graft was causing rifts in the county.
The ODM leader maintained that the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) that was unveiled alongside the handshake with President Uhuru Kenyatta remains the key to forging a better nation.
"In going for the BBI and the handshake, the President and I believed we were acting in the best interests of our nation. Personally, I believe I have spent most of my adult life studying, understanding and addressing the problems of Kenya as a nation," disclosed Odinga.
The opposition leader regretted that the media had not given the BBI team enough coverage to help Kenyans fully understand what it is about.
The team has so far visited 19 counties in order to seek views from Kenyans on how to best deal with problems facing the country in terms of corruption, representation in government as well as constitutional reforms.
Addressing concerns that the opposition was no longer operating as a team and there was a vacuum in its leadership, Raila noted that in many countries, each opposition party acted alone to keep the government in check.
"We do not have to call press conferences and street protests if the government has shown it is willing to engage the Opposition on matters of national interest," he explained.
