An economic team of experts was also assisting the opposition with their strategies and economic policies.
“The opposition has a technical working group that is focusing on the areas of the economy. There is another group working on the leadership of the coalition,” he stated.
“They are not just working on the national level but on critical areas like Nairobi. For instance, we shall not have 10 candidates vying in Nairobi.”
Nyakera is among those eying the Nairobi gubernatorial seat.
