Key allies of CORD co-principal Raila Odinga and some Jubilee MPs skipped President Uhuru Kenyatta’s State of the Nation address on Thursday.

Official parliamentary records compiled by the Sergeant-at-Arms and from the biometric scanner at the entrance of the House show that 225 MPs either failed to register in the daily attendance list or did not show up at all.
