“The Ruto government has ordered the immediate withdrawal of security details of PL Raila Odinga, Martha Karua, and SK Musyoka together with those of other elected leaders in Azimio la Umoja One Kenya Coalition,” ODM stated. 

National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetangula on May 4 ordered National Assembly Majority Leader Kimani Ichung’wah to liaise with security agencies to ensure the security of Azimio MPs is reinstated.
