Raila in his rallies has been claiming that his victory was stolen by President William and that the Kenya Kwanza government is illegitimate.

"I'm saying as a proud African that Africa should not be judged by different standards. If something is not accepted in Europe, it should not be accepted in Africa. What I'm saying are facts that are there show that William Ruto did not win an election, he lost.

“I won and so he's there illegally and what we are going to demand is that Mr Ruto should resign and let Kenyans have their will," Raila said in January.

The opposition chief is also demanding reforms in the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC).

He is expected to hold interdenominational prayers for the electoral commission at Jevanjee gardens in Nairobi on Wednesday, February 22.
