Azimio la Umoja-One Kenya advisory panel is rushing against time to end the tug of war over the running mate position.

To beat the IEBC’s Thursday deadline to pick a running mate, the Azimio-One Kenya Coalition Council constituted the panel last Thursday to evaluate and recommend the most suitable candidate in seven days.
