Monday, February 5, 2024 -ODM leader Raila Odinga has turned against President William Ruto’s statement that he(Raila) had endorsed the housing programme.
In a statement he posted on X platform this Monday February 5, the opposition boss denied endorsing President William Ruto’s affordable housing initiative as a worthy cause.
He distanced himself and the entire Azimio coalition from the programme a day after Ruto said the former Prime Minister had given the initiative a nod of approval.
“Party Leader Raila Odinga, the ODM family and the entire Azimio la Umoja-One Kenya Coalition do not support the imposition of illegal taxes on Kenyans in the name of building Low-Cost Houses,” the opposition party said.
This is after President William Ruto, in Kakamega County, announced that he was happy to hear the ODM Party leader endorse the course as a noble one.
“Am happy that the Azimio leader has supported the programme long after protesting against it,” Ruto stated.
Ruto told Kakamega residents that Odinga had finally agreed with the programme and wondered why, all along, he has been fighting it through street demos.
