[Elvis Ogina, Standard]Azimio la Umoja One Kenya has called off anti-government protests scheduled for today. This is after President Willian Ruto's Kenya Kwanza Alliance yesterday seized the olive branch extended by the opposition to call off the protests and go back to the bipartisan talks. "We made an offer last Sunday to Kenya Kwanza as the Azimio la Umoja One Kenya leadership on bipartisan talks. Less than an hour later, Kenya Kwanza through National Assembly Majority Leader Kimani Ichungwa welcomed the statement by Azimio on the resumption of the bipartisan talks. "We appreciate the conciliatory tone taken by our Azimio la Umoja counterparts to engage in talks and stand down the planned street demonstration should Kenya Kwanza recuse Eldas Member MP Adan keynan," he said.
