Raila Odinga, the leader of the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM), received a boost today when the National Rainbow Coalition and the Muungano parties backed him in their National Delegate Conventions.
Kitui Governor Charity Ngilu and her Makueni counterpart Kivutha Kibwana both announced at the joint exercise that their parties will not run presidential candidates in the August elections.
Both the NARC and Muungano parties have announced that they will support Odinga as part of the Azimio la Umoja Movement coalition.
They also stated that they will be forming a strong force with other like-minded organizations.
Ngilu stated that while the parties had the opportunity to endorse their leaders as presidential candidates, they opted to join Azimio to boost their chances of winning.
“Kibwana, in all his life, has fought for the ordinary person. He has been arrested with the others including Raila fighting for the second liberation,” she said
Odinga was also expected at the Bomas of Kenya for the Muungano and Narc joint NDCs.
