Wafula Wamunyinyi on Wednesday, February 15 stated that the Azimio rallies are not effective and they would soon start street protests. 

Democratic Action Party of Kenya (DAP-K) Deputy Party Leader Wafula Wamunyinyi now says that the Azimio la Umoja camp will soon start street protests. 

Speaking on Wednesday, February 15 during the DAP-K NEC meeting at Chui headquarters in Nairobi, Wamunyinyi stated that the Azimio rallies are not effective and they would soon start street protests, which will results in the government teargassing them. 

Azimio leader Raila Odinga on Thursday last week insisted that they would continue holding the rallies despite criticism from some leaders to stop on grounds that he is dividing the country.

"We must continue to have these barazas to sensitise our people of their democratic right which has been stolen. These people know that they stole elections and they want to rule you as if they won elections," Raila said during an Azimio coalition retreat on Thursday.

The opposition chief has so far held rallies in Kamukunji, Jacaranda, Kibra, Machakos and in Busia.

Azimio was however forced to postpone its Kisii protest rally that was planned to take place on Monday, February 13. The rally is scheduled to happen on Friday, February 17.

“Azimio leaders asked for time between Busia baraza which they were attending today and Kisii baraza which they are still organising,” Raila Odinga’s spokesperson said.
