On Monday, Raila dismissed his political opponents who discount him in the 2022 presidential race on the grounds of his age, 76. Raila's grassroots meetings come weeks after the opposition outfit resolved to dump the National Super Alliance (Nasa) that sponsored him in 2017. A meeting will draw 600 delegates from the Nyanza region to discuss the party's prospects ahead of 2022. The Star has established the meetings will also have a say on a political alliance the party should form and with which group. Suna East MP Junet Mohamed said the Kisii meeting will be the birth of a new bigger political outfit that brings all Kenyans and political formations together.
