First, the elders announced that the Western region shall be part and parcel of the Azimio La Umoja under Raila.
In addition, Ludava declared that they shall mobilise Western community members to support and vote for Raila to be the fifth President of Kenya.
Third, they declared that they shall form the next government with Raila.
In what appeared to be a warning to leaders who dismissed the event, Ludava cautioned that those who will not support the ODM leader's presidential bid shall not be voted for in any elective seat in the region.
"...that the community shall only vote for candidates, in all other positions, who are allied to or are members of the Azimio la Umoja," Ludava stated.
In their fifth resolve, the elders dealt a blow to the ANC leader Musalia Mudavadi after they fronted Governor Oparanya as the region's kingpin.
Ludava stated that the decision had been arrived at by the elders in a bid to ensure that the interests of the Luhya nation are well taken care of.
"The elders unanimously hand over His Excellency Dr Wycliffe Ambetsa Oparanya as the Western Region Community leader with whom you will form the government with and negotiate with the stakes of the community," he declared.
The declaration was signed by the Council secretary Ludava, chairman Patrick Wangamati and Atwoli who is the council's patron.
