Pamoja African Alliance (PAA) Party has signed a cooperation agreement with the Jubilee Party.

In a statement, PAA party patron Amason Kingi said the pact is a step in PAA's quest to bring the coast region to the national political bargaining table.

Other parties that signed the agreement include PNU, UPA, UPIA and KUP.

"The objective of the cooperation agreement that PAA has signed today is to pave way for a structured dialogue process leading to the signing of a pre-election agreement. The cooperation agreement has therefore granted PAA an opportunity to take to the national negotiating table the three main issues that PAA advocates" read the statement.

PAA advocates for a solution to the long outstanding land question at the coast, the revival of the coastal economy and inclusivity in the national government.

Last week, PAA claimed it had been sidelined in the Azimio la Umona Coast tour rallies by ODM leader Raila Odinga.

PAA now will join Azimio la Umoja through the pact with Jubilee Party.
