President William Ruto has urged the Azimio la Umoja Coalition leader Raila Odinga to accept bipartisan talks through Parliament.

On Tuesday, Raila said the parliamentary approach might not address their demands, and proposed the formation of a team akin to the one led by Kofi Annan (deceased) in 2008 after the post-election violence witnessed after the disputed 2007 poll.

The Annan-led National Accord negotiation team brokered the deal that birthed the grand coalition government of former President Mwai Kibaki and Raila as Prime Minister.

On Sunday, after two weeks of street demonstrations that led to the death of three people and over 400 injured, and property of millions of shillings destroyed, Ruto asked Raila to call off the mass action and urged him to agree to a dialogue.
