Raila Odinga’s demands on the full implementation of the National Dialogue Committee (Nadco) report, which introduces the Leader of Opposition and the Prime Minister offices, may be a tall order, according to a joint report by the National Assembly and Senate.

The report rejected the establishment of the PM office, stating it was not clear how the position would align with the presidential system of government and the functions of the office of the deputy president.
