A section of opposition leaders are meeting for a major political gathering at Kalonzo Musyoka's home in Tseikuru, Kitui.
The Standard has established that leaders present so far include former deputy president Rigathi Gachagua, former Public Service CS Justin Muturi, Mithika Linturi, Peter Munya, DAP-K leader Eugene Wamalwa, and Machakos Governor Wavinya Ndeti.
Martha Karua and Fred Matiang'i, who both have interests in the alliance, are out of the country.
The alliance is positioning itself as a formidable force ahead of the 2027 General Election, aiming to unseat President William Ruto.
