BREAKING: People’s President Raila Odinga Arrives At Bomas Of Kenya To Meet Jubilee IEBC Over October Polls

People’s president the NASA flag bearer Raila Odinga and his running mate Kalonzo Musyoka have arrived at Bomas for a meeting with IEBC

Raila arrived at 11.30 am accompanied by Bungoma Senator Moses Wetang’ula who is Ford Kenya leader.

Other Opposition leaders at the Nairobi venue are ANC chief Musalia Mudavadi and Siaya Senator James Orengo who is NASA’s lawyer.

President Uhuru Kenyatta and DP William Ruto are expected to arrive soon.

The electoral agency said it would meet the presidential candidates to iron out contentious issues ahead of the repeat October 26 vote.

“We look forward to meeting with the presidential candidates today. We hope to create a common understanding on the 26th October polls,” IEBC said via Twitter on Tuesday.

Last week, IEBC chairman Wafula Chebukati said the presidential hopefuls would attend meetings in person instead of sending “sideshow” representatives.

The talks ended on a bad note last Wednesday after Opposition representatives walked out saying Jubilee was negotiating in bad faith. Orengo said this followed the proposed amendments to the election laws.
