A meeting of the Parliamentary Group of the Azimio la Umoja One Kenya Coalition Party met on this day, 29th of November 2022 at the SKM Command Centre to deliberate on the state of our nation and the conditions of our people.
The meeting took place against the background of continuing rise in the cost of basic commodities, plans by the government to introduce GMO maize and seeds in to our country and a determination by the Kenya Kwisha administration to create an electoral body in Ruto’s own image and after his liking. That push to reorganize the IEBC is camouflaged as a trial of the four IEBC commissioners.
In view of these developments, the PG resolved as follows:
1. That the JLAC hearings against the four IEBC commissioners is a lynch mob, a hired hit squad and an illegality with a predetermined position. We don’t recognize it and won’t recognize or honour its findings. Instead, we will fight it to the bitter end in and outside the House.
2. We are aware that the products of the Kangaroo meetings in the name of JLAC is scheduled to be tabled on Thursday, 1st December, 2022 and subsequently a special sitting to sanitize the report is to be called on 7th of December. This how desperate and insensitive the regime is. They are calling a special sitting, not about hunger or drought, insecurity and related issues. Instead they are focusing on petty political scores and 2027 elections. We appeal to the Kenya Kwisha administration to please focus. Focus on what really matters for Kenyans now, which is the cost of living, and not 2027 elections.
3. Our stand remains that the focus on the four commissioners is not about 2022 elections. It is about 2027 elections whose rigging the Ruto regime is putting in place in 2022.
4. To this end, we have decided to reschedule the start of our public engagements from tomorrow, the 30th November 2022, to the 7th of December 2022 due to the ongoing national examinations. We have listened to the appeals of parents and our school going children and we decided to obey their wishes.
