Kawangware roadside rally
Raila addressed his supporters in Kawangware before police moved in to disrupt his roadside rallies.
While speaking in Kawangware, Raila stressed that President William Ruto has to work towards bringing down the cost of living.
“We in Azimio are saying the cost of living must come down. By this, I mean the price of maize flour, sugar, and fuel. Are you in agreement?” he posed.
“We also want the server (election) to be opened," he added.
Raila was accompanied by Narc-Kenya leader Martha Karua who was his running mate in the August 2022 polls. Also in the entourage was Wiper Party ticket Kalonzo Musyoka, George Wajackoyah of Roots Party, Eugene Wamalwa (DAP-K).
