Opposition leader Raila Odinga’s Azimio la Umoja One Kenya Coalition Party pitched its case on Wednesday against suspension of High Court orders that declared it the majority side in the National Assembly.

With the stand before the court, Raila’s side indicated it was unwilling to yield to President William Ruto’s party to serve as the minority party without a fight.

Azimio backed arguments for dismissing an application by Speaker Moses Wetang’ula, Kikuyu MP Kimani Ichung’wa, and the National Assembly to suspend the High Court judgment, giving the party the majority. Suna East MP Junet Mohammed, also the party’s secretary general, filed a supporting affidavit urging Court of Appeal Judges Daniel Musinga, Mumbi Ngugi and Francis Tuiyott to dismiss the application.
