When you look at other presidential candidates, they are prepared. Raila is ready under the Azimio la Umoja and Ruto is also ready under United Democratic Alliance (UDA).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It is only us in OKA that are yet to come up with our presidential candidate and we cannot do it between now and February,\u201d ANC deputy party leader, Ayub Savula, stated.<\/p>\n<p>Savula wants Clause 8 (b) of the bill amended so that the provision of six months is replaced with three months.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNotice is given that I (Savula) intends to move amendments to the Political Parties (Amendment) Bill that clause 8 (b) of the bill be amended in the proposed provision by deleting the \u2018six\u2019 and substituting, therefore, the word \u2018three\u2019,\u201d Savula\u2019s proposed amendment read.<\/p>\n<p>Ford Kenya secretary-general, Chris Wamalwa, also stated they will move a similar amendment to ensure parties deposit a coalition pact three months to the elections and not six as proposed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe general objective of the bill is good but we must address the issue of timelines. We can\u2019t be forced to do it within six months. In OKA, we are still doing negotiations and negotiations are delicate as it involves give and take,\u201d Wamalwa stated.<\/p>\n<p>Savula and Wamalwa&#8217;s proposals are similar to others fronted by former Majority Leader, Aden Duale and Kimilili MP, Didmus Barasa.<\/p>\n<p>It also emerged that ANC and Ford-Kenya have fallen out with Wiper, which is a party led by Kalonzo Musyoka, who is reportedly in talks with President Kenyatta and Raila. Already, Wiper has a cooperation agreement with President Kenyatta\u2019s Jubilee.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/kenya\">Kenya<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Kenya.
