Tuesday, March 26, 2024 – The country could be headed for another round of nationwide mass protests if Siaya Governor James Orengo’s warning is anything to go by.
Speaking in Siaya County during
a meeting with ODM delegates in Siaya, Orengo warned President William Ruto to
prepare for the return of nationwide protests, owing to the Government’s delay
in implementing the National Dialogue Committee (NADCO) report.
He questioned the continued
delay and stood firm in his resolve, warning that the trend was likely to plunge
the country into nationwide protests witnessed frequently last year.
A section of Azimio leaders has
been alleging that the Kenya Kwanza faction has been sabotaging the
implementation of the report which seeks to find long-term solutions to the
problems affecting Kenya.
“We are demanding that the
parties to the NADCO negotiation which was put together by Kalonzo Musyoka, Kimani
Ichungw’ah and Opiyo Wandayi, implement the report,” stated Orengo.
“They must implement NADCO
within the timelines that were agreed in the committee, otherwise we shall
return to where we were,” cautioned Orengo
This comes just a day after
Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua declared that he now fully supports the
NADCO report after initially habouring several reservations.
During an interview with
journalists at his Karen office, Gachagua revealed that he had not seen any
signs of a looming handshake between Ruto and Raila after the passage of the
NADCO report.
