While speaking on Tuesday at Joseph Kagethe grounds in Kibra constituency, Odinga asked Matiang'i to stay clear of the August 8, polls.
"There is one Mr Matiang'i who has been placed to take over the late Nkaissery's position, every time he holds meetings in his office and calls IEBC's Ezra Chiloba and Wafula Chebukati as if they are his children and issues them with directives on what is to be done by the independent commission," said Odinga.
Odinga said Matiang'i should stop playing the role of a neutral arbiter yet he is Jubilee's chief campaign leader in the Kisii and Nyamira County.
"We are not going to allow the IEBC to be manipulated by Matiang'i in the name of security. Under the pretense of security Mr Matiang'i is trying to rig this election," he said.
Finally, Odinga warned Matiang'i that the opposition will not tolerate the advances made by Matiangi towards the independent commission.
"We will not allow you to manipulate independent commissions, this is a warning from NASA," he added.
