The leaders made the appeal after a meeting with ODM leader Raila Odinga in Nairobi on Wednesday.

Former Senate deputy speaker Kembi Gitura, former MPs Jamleck Kamau and Kabando wa kabando, and Democratic Party Chairman John Mwaura are among leaders who attended the meeting alongside professionals.

The leaders hit out at Deputy President William Ruto’s allies for opposing the audit.

“We are not interested in 2022, we want to see the country unified and peaceful as it is currently. We have people going around the country trying to downplay the handshake. We want to tell you to stop it and put the interest of the country at heart and not your own. We are here to declare total and unapologetic support,” said Kabando wa Kabando.

Elgeyo Marakwet Senator Kipchumba Murkomen is on record stating that he will not take part in the audit since its illegal.
