Ichung'wah on Saturday claimed that the decision was made amicably between Kenya Kwanza and the Azimio coalitions and that they agreed to establish a 10-member committee with each side having 5 representatives.

"4 members from outside parliament 2 from each side, the Leaders of Majority and Minority from the National Assembly, 4 additional Members of Parliament 2 from each side," read part of the statement.

He added that the talks would revolve around the reconstitution of IEBC, Implementation of 2/3 gender rule, Entrenchment of the Constituency Development Fund, Establishment and the entrenchment of the Office of the Leader of the Opposition and Embedment of the Office of Prime Cabinet Secretary. 

In a rebuttal, the Azimio coalition denied taking part in the purported dialogue, terming Inchung'wah's statement as one-sided.

They instead stated that the only statement they approve of is the one announcing that the parties have reached a consensus to allow talks set to be mediated by former Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo.

"It should be noted that in our statement that was released before KK's, Azimio is yet to table its substantive issues. The Coalition reiterates its foundational principles and values of always placing the interests of the people at the center of any political conversation," read Azimio's statement in part.

Azimio further affirmed that their four-point agenda remains as is, contesting the cost of living, electoral audit and reforms, non-interference in coalitions and their constituent parties and probe into police brutality that has claimed dozens of innocent lives.

"Cognizant of the crisis of living bedeviling the nation with many Kenyans under the pump, our coalition cannot at the very least even countenance a conversation involving establishment of positions not contemplated by our constitution," said Azimio. 

"We owe it to Kenyans to engage honestly, transparently and guided by utmost good faith to find lasting solutions to the crisis in the country."

The statement was also flagged by Azimio principles Narc-Kenya party leader Martha Karua and Wiper party leader Kalonzo Musyoka.

Evidently, the alleged joint statement was only signed by Ichung'wah, with Minorty leader Opiyo Wandayi yet to append his signature.
