Orengo: Preparations for Raila's Inauguration Complete

Preparations for the inauguration of National Super Alliance (NASA) leaders Raila Odinga and Kalonzo Musyoka as people's president and deputy president are complete, Siaya senator James Orengo says.

Orengo said the opposition outfit is keen to see Odinga take the country's leadership from President Kenyatta and urged supporters not to give up over the delays in swearing in of Raila as the 'people's president'.

“Raila will be sworn in and those who think he will not are dreaming. This is the year of change in Kenya and that change will be realised when Raila takes oath of office as the President of Kenya,” said Orengo.

This comes even as NASA told supporters it will be unveiling a timetable for resumption of mass protests and civil disobedience against the Jubilee administration.

Opposition leaders have vowed they will take oath of office if President Kenyatta doesn't want dialogue in electoral justice.

"My supporters should not panic, I am soon going to take the oath. I feel your concern," Raila said on Christmas day.

"I am telling my brother Uhuru Kenyatta if he abdicates the responsibility of uniting this nation, he should not blame Raila and Kalonzo when we say there will be a swearing in ceremony," Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka said a day after returning to the country from Germany.

We are tired of hearing of this fake swearing. Raila and Kalonzo can get sworn in but that will be a private event that will not mean anything to the Kenyans in general. Campaign time is long gone and we are busy rebuilding our lives once again.

Here we ago again mwakilishi please style up., politics is now stale., this is now becoming an obsession on your part. People are going back to school, changes in curriculum from 8-4-4, NTSA, new international airport in isiolo, sgr to kisumu, investments etc etc . If you were the only source of information umenoa I only come to see obituaries and announcement of over rated parties that I don’t go.. learn from Kenya moja

This news is not worth the space it occupies and second Kenyans are broke its getting hot, water is scarce as usual and businesses are trying to recover from last years drama. No one cares. Such an incompetent opposition only in existence for elections every day and not Kenyans needs. Kenyans are dying everyday due to road carnage and lack of health care. Poor education standard, 400k+ students out of sch, no employment. Who fights for these people? Bure kabisa.
