Azimio leader Raila Odinga has said that he will give direction on the report by the National Dialogue Committee (Nadco), on Thursday.
Speaking in Nyamira, Raila said this will be after a meeting with Azimio Leadership, including the coalition’s parliamentary group.
He said Kenyans are eager to know what is contained in the report and the position of the Azimio coalition, which is why the report needs thorough scrutiny.
The Opposition leader said the report will be studied and members of the coalition given a chance to discuss it before a resolution is made.
Raila presided over the launch of the ODM Membership recruitment drive in Nyamira County on Monday.
He urged young Kenyans to apply for National Identity Cards if they want to participate in the next general election to help fix the mess that has been brought about by the Kenya Kwanza administration.
The Nadco unveiled its final report to the public on Saturday.
The report has various recommendations on the various issues that were raised by both sides of the political divide.
The committee, however, admitted to failing to agree on the matter of cost of living while unveiling the final report of its deliberations.
In the report, both camps made proposals on key issues that were part and parcel of the talks in which they disclosed failure to hit a deal on Azimio's major concerns on taxes, the finance act, and the Housing Levy.
"The committee was unable to reach a consensus on several other proposals on the matter of cost of living, including the reduction of VAT on fuel from 16 per cent to 8 per cent and scrapping of the housing levy, the twin issues in the Finance Act, 2023," the report stated.
Reports, however, say that following the release of the report, divisions have emerged within the Azimio coalition over the contents.
At least two Azimio principals — Martha Karua and Eugene Wamalwa — as well as several MPs have trashed the report for reportedly failing to address the cost of living.
