Raila's Statement After ODM Announced NASA Exit

Former Prime Minister and ODM leader Raila Odinga has spoken after his party officially announced that it had left the National Super Alliance (NASA) coalition.

Taking to Twitter, Odinga said his party will now focus on the future and it embarks on a new and inclusive political trajectory.

The ODM leader said he is impressed with his team's zeal in the promotion of the party's social justice agenda. 

"The ODM Party NEC has resolved that the party formally exit the NASA Coalition. We shall now embark on a new, inclusive and futuristic political trajectory. I’m impressed by team's enthusiasm in promoting our party’s social justice agenda," said Odinga.

His words came shortly after the ODM party National Executive Committee (NEC) resolved to leave the NASA coalition and made an official announcement.

ODM's exit comes just two days since Wiper Democratic Movement officially exited NASA after the move was ratified by its National Executive Commission.

This will now leave NASA a mere shell as the Orange party contributed the largest number of elected members in the coalition.

Musalia Mudavadi's Amani National Coalition had earlier expressed interest in leaving the NASA coalition but has not made the move official.

ANC, Ford Kenya and Wiper are two of the four constituent parties that make up the One Kenya Alliance which also includes Gideon Moi-led KANU.
