NASA suspends People’s Assembly after Uhuru-Raila talks

The opposition National Super Alliance has suspended the People’s Assembly formation process following the unity talks held by President Uhuru Kenyatta and NASA leader Raila Odinga last week.

The People’s Assembly steering committee chairman David Ndii, said the decision was made to provide an opportunity to unify and get the country on the right course.

In a press address, Mr. Ndii hailed President Kenyatta and Mr. Odinga for acknowledging that the country was facing a unity crisis hence the need to commence a healing process.

“We commend and congratulate the two leaders for this meeting of minds because we have not had leaders in the past come to this meeting of minds and tell the nation that this (tribalism) is a fundamental problem we have in this nation,” he said.

“The two leaders have asked us to give them an opportunity to spearhead this process and we have accepted. We are therefore in this spirit suspending the people’s assembly process.”
