Raila heads to the Coast with meetings scheduled in Kilifi, Mombasa, Kwale and Taita Taveta counties while Mudavadi will tour Kericho, Bomet and Kisii counties. Both the PM and DPM are out to convince ODM delegates that thy are the best to carry the party mantle at the forthcoming general election.
