Senate Majority leader Aaron Cheruiyot has urged Azimio team to either choose the bipartisan talks or go back to the streets.
Through his Twitter account on Friday, he said the opposition team cannot do both of them.
“It is bipartisan talks or the streets, you cannot have it both ways. No double chance betting,” Cheruiyot said.
He said peaceful conversations cannot be held at the expense of threats.
Instead, Azimio members should consider that the bipartisan talk can work.
“You must at least believe in something. In peace talks, guns are normally silenced first,” he said.
This comes after Azimio leader Raila Odinga announced the return of street protests accusing President William Ruto of insincerity in the proposed dialogue.
On Thursday, he said he will disclose a second phase programme of the nationwide mass action immediately after the holy month of Ramadhan.
“Tunangoja Ramadhan iishe alafu tutatangaza (We will announce after the holy month of Ramadhan),” Raila said.
However, he said the demos will run concurrently with the bipartisan talks.
“I agree with what you have said, the talks will happen alongside demos. Dawa ya moto ni moto, sisi tutaendelea (We will fight with fire)” Raila said.
The former Prime Minister spoke when he led the top leaders of Azimio to a multi-sectoral meeting hosted by civil society at historic Ufungamano Hall in Nairobi.
