A section of leaders from the azimio la Umoja coalition tells president William ruto to deliver his promises to kenyans during the campaign period and cease pointing fingers at the past regime.

The legislators were also critical of the national government's borrowing spree, which they had vehemently opposed during their campaigns. They asked the current administration to focus on important issues affecting kenyans at the moment, such as the high cost of living and heavy taxes.

The leaders have stated that they will not back down in their efforts to hold the government accountable for how they are currently spending taxpayers' money, which they claim is being misappropriated.

These demands come at a time when the injunction of the azimio coalition is set to expire at midnight. The leader of the azimio la Umoja coalition, Raila Odinga, had given the kenya kwanza administration a 14 days request to lower the cost of living, or he would initiate mass action.

Raila Odinga insists that the kenya kwanza regime is in office illegally, a claim that other leaders in the azmio coalition support. The former prime minister claims he won the presidential elections by over 2 million votes against president William Ruto. Still, his votes were stolen

The former prime minister says that the ex-chair of the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission, wafula chebukati colluded with officials from the kenya kwanza regime to rig the elections. Odinga insists that Ruto and his administration should resign from office to pave the way for a new election.

Wafula Chebukati, on the other hand, claims that officials from the past government are the ones who tried to influence the elections by forcing him to change the results to favour raila odinga or to force a rerun. The ex-IEBC chair has maintained that the 2022 elections were the most credible elections he has ever conducted.
