Cord leader Raila Odinga has said planned parallel Madaraka Day celebrations at Uhuru Park will go on as scheduled Wednesday June 1. “We will go to Uhuru Park whether they like it or not,” Raila said. While in Mombasa, Raila continued his crusade against the IEBC saying the commissioners must go. Speaking in Mombasa on Saturday during Governor's Award Program hosted by county boss Hassan Joho, Raila said they will not be intimidated by police. This is despite pointers from police that the venue has already been booked for prayers by a church.
