It was mixed signals from the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) on Friday as party leader Raila Odinga declared that he would follow the voice of his supporters even as party honchos said they now await his big announcement on the way forward.

Since his promise in the week at State House Mombasa of an announcement after a missed African Union Commission chairperson job push, party supporters and leaders have been expecting a rallying call on whether to work with President William Ruto or go own way.
