MP backs formation of Government of National UnityLegislators allied to the ODM party have endorsed calls for the formation of a coalition government between President Uhuru Kenyatta and Raila Odinga. Led by Gem MP Elisha Odhiambo, they argued that the coalition was the most viable option not only ensuring economic prosperity but also rebuilding the economy after the coronavirus pandemic. Odhiambo held that a coalition government was Kenya's best shot at recovering from the global pandemic, saying that it would ensure there was less focus on political bickering and more service delivery. He said that after the 2007/2008 post-election violence, it was the President Mwai Kibaki and Raila Odinga coalition government that restored economic sanity followings months of tribal clashes.
