Azimio la Umoja leader Raila Odinga has claimed that the Kenya Kwanza government is planning to remove the presidential term limit.

Speaking during the Jubilee Party NDC on Monday, May 22 at the Ngong Race Course in Nairobi, Raila alleged that the schemes against the Jubilee Party are part of the plan by the Kenya Kwanza regime to have a super majority in Parliament that will enable them to amend the constitution.

''The end game for Kenya Kwanza in its schemes against Jubilee is to give itself a supermajority in Parliament that will enable them to amend the constitution towards desired goals including the possible removal of presidential term limits," Raila claimed.

The opposition chief accused the President William Ruto-led government of working on a similar path to that of 1964 that saw KADU joining KANU without its members seeking a fresh mandate from the electorate.

“Kenya Kwanza is working on an arrangement similar to that of 1964 that saw KADU walk across the aisle and join KANU without its members of Parliament having to seek a fresh mandate,'' Raila said.

He added, “Kenya Kwanza wants to ensure that Jubilee as a party does not continue to exist on this side of the aisle. They want Jubilee dead the same way KADU did after which Kenya Kwanza will try to enact the train of events followed that saw Kenya become a de facto one-party democracy in 1969 before it was made a de jure one-party state in one afternoon in 1982.”
