Speaking on Saturday at Kakemer during the Burial of the father to Teso North MP, ODM leader Raila Odinga said it is only those 'who took an oath of the Presidency' should meet and discuss the future of the country.

"Uhuru aliapishwa na mimi pia nilichukua kiapo. Kwa hivyo, waliochukua viapo vya Urais tu ndo walifaa kuketi. (Uhuru took an oath and I also took an oath.Those who took oath of Presidency deserved to meet and talk about the future of this country),"Raila said
