After days of a back and forth with the government, Azimio la Umoja leader Raila Odinga Wednesday led his lieutenants to the first public engagement at the historic Kamukunji grounds, Nairobi.
Raila launched an onslaught on President William Ruto's government demanding it reinstates subsidies on fuel, maize flour, school fees and electricity to lower the cost of living.
Raila, who was accompanied by Azimio leaders Martha Karua (Narck Kenya), Kalonzo Musyoka (Wiper) and Jubilee Secretary General Jeremiah Kioni, said the people were unhappy as things had worsened and he could not wait for the lapse of the government's 100 days in office to see whether it will fulfill some election promises.
