This comes barely a day after Odinga held a rally at Jacaranda in Nairobi County where called on President William Ruto to leave State House.
He coupled his message with tirades against Ruto whom he accused of imposing punitive taxes on Kenyans.
"You have become Zaccheus the tax collector in Kenya. You must admit that you were defeated in the polls. Come out of State House for Baba to get in. We don't want fights, and we don't want conflicts, but we will not accept being intimidated. Kenyans have a right to sound leadership, and that is why Azimio is firm," he said.
