ODM leader Raila Odinga addresses a rally in Voi, Taita Taveta County yesterday. The formation of the Coast-based political party is Kilifi Governor Amason Kingi's idea. Kingi and some Coast leaders have said they are in the process of forming a Coast party, which he said will be unveiled soon. In Taita Taveta, Raila also launched a broadside against Deputy President William Ruto, accusing him of being a "fence-sitter" on matters of national importance like constitutional amendments. Raila further thanked MCAs in the Coast region for passing the BBI Bill and was optimistic that Parliament will quickly do the same.
