Azimio Rejoices as Perfect Candidate Named to Face Ruto, Tensions Ease Among Members

 

Kenya’s opposition coalition, Azimio, is facing internal tensions that could affect its chances in the 2027 elections. 

Founding members of the alliance have publicly raised concerns about the process of selecting the coalition’s presidential candidate, signaling a potential clash that could weaken their united front against President William Ruto.

In a statement released this week, several founding parties emphasized the need for transparency and inclusivity in picking the flagbearer. 

They warned that any decision made behind closed doors or favoring specific interests could alienate key stakeholders and supporters. 

The statement, shared widely on social media, also rejected what some members termed “boardroom deals” that might undermine the coalition’s credibility.GET FULL STORY HERE.
