It's time to agree not to argue

The coalition of reforms and democracy (CORD) should negotiate with government without giving ultimatums instead of creating unnecessary tension in political sphere in the country

Cord leader Raila Odinga  should shun all political rallies and accept the need to have dialogue with the government side

Jubilee government should accept the fact that Kenyans are suffering from high standard of living,insecurity and give the cord coalition time to discuss the problems on constitutionally mandated arms of the government without sidelining them on tyranny of numbers

The challenge that CORD coalition is facing is tyranny of numbers  in parliament and the members of parliament should put  their differences aside and resolve the problems that Kenyans are facing   at large without looking on their political affiliations

Cord gives goverment altimatum


 Police fired tear gas at protesters early on Monday, shortly before an opposition rally started, stoking tensions in a nation haunted by past political violence and battling a wave of militant attacks.

Police shot gas canisters to disperse unruly protesters on  streets and fired again after youths hurled stones on them

"Uhuru must go", chanted a group of a few hundred protesters in streets early on Monday. Some clambered over statues, prompting police to fire teargas.

Streets in Nairobi were quieter than normal, as many Kenyans steered clear of the city center.
Kenyatta aides have dismissed the call for dialogue, saying there are already channels for debate, such as parliament. They have accused the former prime minister of trying to claw his way back to power without a ballot, a charge Odinga denies.

Somali Islamist group al Shabaab claimed responsibility for Saturday's attacks - one in Lamu County and the other in Tana County.The group akso claimed responsibilities in mpeketoni last month that left more than 65 dead
This sabasaba comes when Kenya have have received recent attacks in Lamu county where more than 20 lives was lost
Government statements have left Kenyans confused about who is behind the militant strikes and worried that political squabbling will hamper a security campaign to stop them.

Cord coalitions have given the government ultimatums where they have decided to start revolution:
i)Okoa kenya to protect people

ii)Demand reviewing of taxation of goods

iii)Disbanding IEBC

iv)corruption:cancellation of safaricom contract failure they will give commercial sanction

v)reject any attempt to change TJRC report

vi)national audit of public service workers on tribe gender and where they come from

Raila have called upon the government decision to deploy 15 thousand police men in Uhuru Park is a coward attempt saying government have failed to protect its citizens

Kalonzo said the government should return Kenyan army who are working under Amisom to come back to Kenya as it is hard to fight with extremist, also he have called on tally on number of military who have died in Somali to be done.
