The Azimio La Umoja convention on Friday in Nairobi has been touted as the unveiling moment for President Uhuru Kenyatta’s handshake with ODM leader Raila Odinga.
The event, which will take place at the Moi International Stadium in Kasarani on Monday, will be a crowning moment for the peace deal they signed with Kenyatta in March 2018.
“We agreed with Uhuru that he would sit on his end and I would sit on mine, and together we would bring Kenyans together in our search for unity.” This week’s Friday is critical for us. It’s a sign that the journey we started has come to an end,” Odinga remarked in Nairobi during a meeting with Jubilee and ODM officials.
At the occasion, the leader of the opposition may be unveiling his Raila 2022 presidential candidacy.
Despite the fact that he has been promoting his candidacy across the country, Odinga has yet to publicly announce his candidacy.
The 2018 handshake that brought an abrupt end to warring rivals, has been clouded in secrecy, and has been the main cause of a political fall out with Deputy President William Ruto.
