All ODM elected leaders are expected to attend the event that is set to be graced by attendances from Wiper Democratic Movement leader Kalonzo Musyoka, Ford Kenya leader Moses Wetang’ula as well as some international guests.
This comes as President Uhuru Kenyatta and his deputy William Ruto gear up for a grand launch of the new Jubilee party through which they will seek re-election in the 2017 elections.
