Azimio la Umoja co-principal Kalonzo Musyoka has said that the coalition now recognizes President William Ruto as a legitimate Head of State. Kalonzo said that the coalition recognizes Ruto as the President because of his stance to keep the bi-partisan talks between the Kenya Kwanza faction and Azimio going. He said that the bi-partisan talks will cover outstanding constitutional matters, electoral justice, Entrenching funds into the Constitution, Establishment of state offices and Fidelity to political parties/coalitions and the law on multi-party democracy. It is also a major boost for President Ruto, who has been seeking to legitimize his presidency by getting the support of the opposition. The bi-partisan talks are expected to be tough, but they are seen as a necessary step to address the challenges facing Kenya.
