As the second month of 2024 takes shape, opposition coalition is preparing to face off with government in a move Azimio leader Raila Odinga has said will hold the President William Ruto's administration accountable.

Starting the year with grassroots recruitment drives that have so far covered Western Kenya, Nyanza and the Coast, Raila has now encouraged other constituent parties to engage with the people and rally support for the coalition in the face of shrinking government approval ratings.
