NASA flag bearer Raila Odinga has not gone to court seeking to stop the sale of state's subsidised flour.
Raila's spokesman Dennis Onyango on Tuesday said the information doing rounds on social media is fake.
This was after the information, fashioned as a news alert from Capital FM through the Get IT 411 platform, was widely shared on WhatsApp.
Onyango said termed the claim of Raila going to court as a "creation of Jubilee which is struggling to explain how a ship traveled from Mexico to Kenya in three days."
"Capital FM has equally not released any alert to that effect," Onyango said.
The government, in efforts to tackle soaring food prices, introduced the product which will trade in shops beginning Wednesday.
Agriculture CS Willy Bett told journalists that a 2kg packet of the subsidised maize flour will retail at Sh90.
Bett said this is a temporary measure as the state works on permanent solutions to the food shortage in the country caused by drought.
