Kalonzo emphasized unity, strategy, and institutional engagement as central pillars of the next phase of opposition politics.
According to Kalonzo, the meeting brought together key opposition principals under the banner of the United Opposition, signaling a deliberate effort to consolidate voices that have often operated independently.
Together with Karua, he said, the leaders held extensive deliberations on the state of the nation, democratic governance, and the growing concerns among citizens.
Two major resolutions emerged from the discussions.
First, the United Opposition will pay a formal visit to the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) on Wednesday, January 28, 2026, in the afternoon.
During the visit, the opposition plans to table critical issues of national concern that, according to Kalonzo, require urgent attention to safeguard electoral integrity and public confidence in democratic institutions.
Secondly, the opposition leaders agreed to convene a retreat in February.
The retreat will focus on developing strategic frameworks to guide what Kalonzo described as a “monumental task” ahead.
Central to this mission is the rallying call to “Komboa Kenya,” or liberate the country, a phrase that has increasingly become a unifying slogan within opposition ranks.
Kalonzo noted that the retreat would allow leaders to move beyond rhetoric and lay down practical, coordinated plans for political engagement, reform advocacy, and citizen mobilization.
He stressed that the challenges facing the country demand careful planning, discipline, and collective resolve.
The renewed coordination with Martha Karua underscores an attempt to present a united, credible alternative leadership.
As the opposition sharpens its strategy, the coming weeks are expected to test its ability to translate unity meetings into sustained political momentum.
Observers say the next steps will determine whether the opposition can effectively channel public frustration into structured national reform efforts.
