Opposition Leader Raila Odinga has led other Azimio La Umoja team members to propose new and massive reforms following Sunday's truce. 

Speaking during the Parliamentary Group meeting, Raila said the team wants a proper constitutional review to cure the governance defect in the 2010 Constitution. 

"We want to remove the last vestiges of an imperial presidency," Raila stated. 

The ODM leader said that the matters discussed during the PG meeting will be put on the table during a dialogue with the Kenya Kwanza government. 

In other demands, Raila wants recommendations on measures on how the cost of unga, fuel, electricity and school fees will be lowered. 

"We want a review and forensic audit of the servers used by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission before, during and after the 2022 general election," he said. 

Raila also wants the government to consider restructuring IEBC by dissolving structures to the counties, and whether the counties really need commissioners working on a permanent basis  

Failure to meet their demands, Raila said the team will not hesitate to mobilise Kenyans to demand their rights within the framework of Article 37 of the Constitution. 

"The monopoly of power, by hook or crook, by the party in the State House can only be rectified with a thoughtful deliberative process involving all Kenyans," Raila added.
