It is clear that no leader from Mt. Kenya will be present in the expected talks between the opposition and the ruling party. Martha Karua fiercely opposed this move protesting why the region had been left out in representation.
But now, Saboti MP Caleb Hamisi has answered the NARC Kenya party leader. He has informed her that the talks are not focused on the distribution of positions but rather on key issues the opposition is trying to resolve.
Earlier on, Kileleshwa MCA Robert Alai had unleashed a scathing attack on the Mt. Kenya team raising tensions. According to the MCA, the region did not deliver many votes to Mr. Raila yet they are making too many demands.
With the already building tensions, it is not clear if the ODM chief will change his mind and review the list. WIPER boss Kalonzo will be among those who will lead the talks.
