Initial Support for Dialogue

Initially, Odinga had supported Ruto’s dialogue initiative, describing it as the best way to resolve the current national crisis.

However, he has now changed his stance, asserting to the young generation that he will only participate in the dialogue if the following conditions are met:

Demands:

  • Compensation for victims of police brutality
  • Dismissal of all protest-related cases
  • Release of all abductees and those imprisoned
  • Resolution of outstanding healthcare (healthcare workers’ welfare) and education (JSS teachers) grievances
  • Reversion of public healthcare insurance back to NHIF, discarding SHIF
  • Prosecution of security sector perpetrators responsible for atrocities against peaceful Kenyans

Conditions for Dialogue

Odinga stated that once these issues are addressed, a National Conversation can proceed transparently in a neutral venue.
