The Azimio la Umoja One Kenya Coalition has named seven lawmakers to lead bi-partisan talks with the Kenya Kwanza Alliance even as it issued fresh demands.

Speaking during the Azimio Parliamentary Group meeting in Machakos yesterday, opposition leader Raila Odinga demanded proper review of the Constitution to cure what he termed 'monopoly of power bestowed by the supreme law'.

"We are driven by the concern that in spite of the 2010 Constitution, our political culture retains a winner-take-all system. This is what has clearly been demonstrated by the UDA regime. This monopoly of power, by hook or crook, by the party in the State House can only rectify with a thoughtful, deliberative process involving all Kenyans," said Raila.
