Sharp divisions have emerged within the Azimio coalition over whether Raila Odinga should participate in the National Multi-Sectoral Forum scheduled for next week.

Despite the divisions in the coalition - comprising ODM, Wiper, DAP-K, Jubilee, and Narc Kenya - ODM's Raila Odinga remains isolated in his stance.
