The ODM leaders stated that the demands will include; the reopening of the IEBC servers, reinstatement of former IEBC commissioners, lowering the high cost of living and amending the constitution so that MPs who cross party lines are required to resign. 

The former Prime Minister also proposed that the constitution be reviewed to remove an imperial presidency.

“We need a proper constitutional review to cure the governance indifference in the 2010 constitution and remove an imperial presidency. In our dialogue with Kenya Kwanza we will be putting this matter on the table,” Raila stated.
