Opposition chief Raila Odinga was in Kitui on Tuesday where he officiated the opening of the Kitui Villa, a hotel owned by political science lecturer Prof Makau Mutua.
The former prime minister addressed a rally in Kitui town where he passionately spoke about his relationship with President Uhuru Kenyatta, the man who floored him during the 2013 and 2017 general elections.
But one issue the former Langata MP spoke about which may not have gone down well with a section of Jubilee leaders was his insistence on a Constitutional amendment before 2022.
"We are still holding discussions but I want to assure you that we are moving towards that direction," Raila said at the rally.
He said there are specific clauses in the supreme law that need to be amended "for the country to move forward as one".
The proposed amendment to the law has not been received well within the Jubilee administration with Deputy President Willian Ruto and his allies totally against. They believe the amendment is aimed at locking out Ruto from succeeding Uhuru in 2022.
They also claim that the changes are meant to create more posts in government and one of the beneficiaries of the new positions will be Raila.
"We are not going to change the Constitution to create positions for selfish politicians," the DP said on April 15.
Uhuru also recently made a U-turn and rejected Raila's proposed amendments saying the country should focus on development and not politics.
"We have a Constitution that gave us the 47 counties. There is no intention here, we have no time here to run around the country asking whether you want another Constitution or no Constitution,' Uhuru said.
