“We are on the tail end. We are working on the nitty-gritty of what will constitute the report."

The National Dialogue Committee has said they will most likely hand over its report to President William Ruto and ODM Leader Raila Odinga on Saturday, November 25. 

The committee said they are finalizing the details of the report which is likely to be done by Friday so that it can be handed over to the president. 

“We are on the tail end. We are working on the nitty-gritty of what will constitute the report. We do hope we shall be here together with our technical team up to Saturday. We can announce to the country that we shall have the report adopted and released to the country on Saturday,” the National Dialogue Committee Co-Chair Kimani Ichung’wah said on Wednesday.

The committee on Wednesday met Treasury CS Njuguna Ndung’u during which they discussed key issues on economic reforms that had stalled the talks.

Reports already suggest that the proposal to stop the taxation measures captured in the Finance Act has been abandoned for now.

“We are working very seriously. The Issues are heavy and because they are heavy, they can look heavy on our faces. We are doing everything we can to deliver,” National Dialogue Committee Co-Chair Kalonzo Musyoka said.

The National Dialogue Committee was formed to address concerns raised by the opposition led by ODM Leader Raila Odinga.

The government led by President Ruto also presented its issues on the table for discussion.

Both Raila and Ruto appointed their representatives to the committee to address the concerns raised by the opposition and find common ground on issues raised.

The Azimio coalition had raised the cost of living as one of its key issues to be addressed.
