Azimio la Umoja leader Raila Odinga has revealed he had discussions with President Wiliam Ruto before four of his allies were nominated to join the Cabinet.

Raila painted a picture of the urgency President Ruto had in his bid to appoint a new Cabinet to quell the political tension that had gripped the country.

It also casts doubt on the sincerity of earlier proclamations by his ODM party, when some members dismissed claims the opposition held talks with the president over the Cabinet.

Raila's assertions are a contrast to earlier claims by himself and other party members over the nomination of ODM deputy party leaders Wycliffe Oparanya and Hassan Joho, party chairman John Mbadi and Minority Leader in the National Assembly Opiyo Wandayi to join President William Ruto's Cabinet
