The conference will take place at Kasarani Stadium on March 9 and 10.

The announcement by ODM director of elections Junet Mohamed has jolted some coalition members, who question the timing of the move.

“On February 7, the ODM central management committee resolved that since our presidential candidate Raila Odinga was endorsed by NEC and the National Governing Council at Bomas of Kenya, we will hold a National Delegates Conference to endorse him as flagbearer,” he said on Sunday.
