Former Prime Minister, Raila Odinga, and his running mate, Martha Karua, have featured in a skit for the Azimio La Umoja One Kenya coalition party campaign.
In the video released on Thursday, June 16, the duo, seated next to each other, received letters from a section of Kenyans who wrote over the issues they want addressed by the Azimio administration once elected.
Raila then proceeds to read his letter and is interrupted by a supporter who states that there are more letters coming.

"Yoh! baba, Wakenya wameongeza barua zingine. Wanasema wanataka password (Yoh! baba, Kenyans have added more letters, they want the password)," the supporter states.
The duo proceeds to receive the letters as they read in silence before making a promise in the over one-minute video.
"Barua tumezisoma (We have read the letters)," Karua stated.
"Wakenya, tumesikia maoni yenu. Hii ndio password. Inawezekana (We heard your views. This is the password. It is possible)," Raila echoed.
The video is part of the strategies the Azimio team is using to woo voters to support their presidential bid ahead of the August 9 polls.
Previously, Raila featured in 'Lelo ni Lelo' song alongside Benga artist Emmanuel Musindi. The duo released a video for their duet in February.
The song is the coalition's signature tune during Azimio popularisation tours of the country.
"Haki iwe ngao na mlinzi, natukae na udugu, amani na uhuru, raha tupate na ustawi, (Justice be our shield and defender, May we dwell in unity, peace and liberty, plenty be found within our borders).
“Kenya mpya inawezekana (a new Kenya is possible),” Raila adlibs in the song.
