Azimio Coalition leader Raila Odinga has dismissed claims that he held a meeting with envoys on Thursday.

He said he has been nursing a strong flu and he is keeping off any public engagements and meetings. 

"I have therefore held no meeting with any envoys as reported by some media outlets," he said.

Earlier, reports emerged that Raila and Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka had met with special envoys at Kalonzo's Karen home.

They added that the representatives were from the United States of America, the United Nations and the European Union.

In his statement, Raila however confirmed that Kalonzo had met with National Minority leader Opiyo Wandayi and Jubilee Secretary General Jeremiah Kioni.

He said the two visited the former Vice President at his Karen home. 

"Representatives of our coalition Hon Opiyo Wandayi and Hon Jeremiah Kioni have today visited Hon Kalonzo Musyoka following his ongoing house arrest and detention," he said.

The ODM leader revealed his health state on Wednesday during a phone interview with NTV.

He said he has been sick, which is why he has not been present for the ongoing anti-government protests.

"Nilipata homa mbaya sana... Lakini sasa nazidi kupata afueni. Nitakuwa sawa sawa," Raila said.
