National Super Alliance (Nasa) leader Raila Odinga has said he is not afraid to take the oath of the office of the president.
Speaking in Kakamega on Sunday, Odinga dismissed those who were saying the act will amount to treason.
The opposition leader said he will be sworn in on January 30.
"On January 30th, I will be sworn in and this time it's a real deal and anyone one saying its treason let him come and arrest us," Raila said.
Attorney General Githu Muigai had earlier told Nasa leaders that the oath amounts to treason since President Uhuru Kenyatta has assumed office.
"The event is not only about carrying the Bible and saying 'I swear', we want to make it real," he said.
He also hit out at Jubilee, saying it was responsible for the death of several Kenyans after the disputed August 8 general elections.
