Former Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission [IEBC] Commissioner Roselyn Akombe has taken a swipe at Raila Odinga for meeting Mt Kenya leaders.
Odinga held a closed-door meeting with leaders from Mt Kenya on Thursday where they discussed a host of issues.
Among items discussed include Building Bridges Initiative, social-economic empowerment and representation.
"Held meetings with political and community leaders from the Mt. Kenya region. We reviewed the BBI and its implications for matters critical to them including Agriculture, Representation, Youth Empowerment, Sharing of Revenue, national unity and economic well-being of the nation," he said.
However, Akombe was quick to note disparities in Raila's meeting which comes days to much anticipated Meru BBI meeting.
Akombe noted the absence of youths in the meeting and women, who the organisers purportedly discussed about their plight.
"Great to see the young men and women of diverse socio-economic backgrounds sitting around the table discussing issues of “agriculture, representation, youth empowerment, sharing of revenue, national unity...” she said.
Among those present were Governors Francis Kimemia, Kiraitu Murungi and Kikuyu Council of Elders led by Peter Munga.
Akombe fled Kenya in 2017 moments before presidential repeat polls, citing frustrations and sabotage.
