At the Siaya County Assembly, Raila proceeded into an informal meeting with Members of the County Assembly.<\/p>\n<p>The opposition chief was flanked by Orengo, speaker George Okode, Suna West MP Peter Masara and Siaya county ODM chairman Oloo Okanda. Religious leaders from Siaya also attended the meeting.<\/p>\n<p>The newly elected deputy chairman (Ker) of a faction of the Luo Council James Ayaga was also present. The agenda of Raila&#8217;s meeting with the county officials remained unclear.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking to the Star after the meeting that was convened at the Assembly chamber, Assembly Majority Leader Martin Otieno said that &#8220;it was just an informal meeting between us and Baba (Raila)&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We discussed matters devolution and service delivery to the people. We did not discuss the Oduol issue,&#8221; Otieno said.<\/p>\n<p>Raila was not immediately available for comment in regards to his agenda. Raila is expected to attend a public rally in Ugunja in the afternoon. A number of ODM legislators from within and without Siaya County are attending the Ugunja rally.<\/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.
