The opposition Azimio la Umoja One Kenya Coalition’s planned rallies are expected to culminate in a national convention in Nairobi, where alliance leader Raila Odinga is expected to declare civil disobedience.
According to Azimio la Umoja One Kenya alliance officials, the secretariat has been directed to compile a list of products associated with individuals and companies “that participated in the August 9, 2022, presidential election fraud” for a Kenyan boycott.
During the convention, which is tentatively scheduled for Kasarani Sports Complex, the opposition coalition will also instruct its supporters to stop paying taxes in protest of the high cost of living caused by the elimination of subsidies on petroleum products, electricity, flour, and other basic items.
The coalition plans another public engagement at Nairobi’s Jacaranda Grounds tomorrow before departing for rallies in the 47 counties that will precede the final declaration designed to paralyze Kenya Kwanza government operations.
Mr. Odinga has demanded that President William Ruto resign in an unprecedented escalation of a political battle over the disputed election, claiming that the latter is in office illegally.
