In the meeting there were other leaders among them Nairobi County Assembly members – Majority Whip Peter Imwatok and his Minority Paul Kados. Also in the same group was the vocal Kamukunji MP Yussuf Hassan.
“Wanyonyi and Igathe agreed to work together and from next week, all ODM MCAs will join the Azimio campaigns and hit the ground running. We will all drop the ODM belonging or Jubilee belonging and campaign as Azimio la Umoja,” Nairobi Minority Whip Peter Imwatok confirmed.
Wanyonyi was recently pressured to step down for Mr. Igathe a move that caused some friction in Azimio coalition.
