Raila with NASA elected leaders prepares to cut the cake during his birthday celebrations in Kakamega on Sunday. He will be sworn in on January 30. [Photo/Raila Facebook page]Kisii County will host opposition NASA’s last rally before the launch of the People’s Assembly and subsequently opposition leader Raila Odinga’s ‘swearing-in’.
The rally will be held at the Gusii Stadium after similar rallies have been held in Narok and Migori Counties ahead of the inauguration at Uhuru Park Nairobi.
NASA is expected to stage a grand rally on the last Tuesday of January where Raila Odinga will be ‘sworn in’ as the people’s president.
Other rallies before the inauguration will be held in Machakos and Mombasa.
NASA’s push for Raila’s ‘swearing in’ follows the laxity by President Uhuru Kenyatta and his deputy William Ruto to call for dialogue to discuss electoral reforms including the possibility of holding another election.
NASA maintains both the August 8 and October 26 repeat elections were rigged in Uhuru’s favor and has been calling for dialogue to discuss the issue.
NASA also wants the IEBC disbanded and reconstituted after the electoral agency’s CEO Ezra Chiloba was accused of working with State officials to rig the presidential election.
