Opposition leader Raila Odinga has rubbished claims that the National Super Alliance (NASA) has transformed into a resistance movement. Speaking in an exclusive interview with CNN Friday, the former Premier said that the National Resistance Movement (NRM) is just a branch within the alliance. "We are still under the NASA alliance which has subdivisions including the parliamentary wing and NRM will be included as another wing of the team to further push for our ideologies," he said. Odinga also ruled out possibilities of the alliance engaging the ruling Jubilee Party in a dialogue with regards to solving the current political stalemate, saying that the only negotiation they are ready for are those that will lead towards national poll agency IEBC conducting another election in 90 days. "We have always been ready for dialogue but our counterparts were too proud to engage us and we are no longer open for negotiations. The only talks we can participate in are those aimed at pushing for a free and fair election within 90 days," said Raila.
