President William Ruto ruled out negotiation on the cost of living during his meeting with Opposition leader Raila Odinga in the presence of Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo, the Nation can reveal. “Ruto put it before Obasanjo and Raila that cost of living cannot be part of discussions. But we are prepared to go full hog on some of these issues,” Mr Musyoka said. The President is said to have rejected the suggestion but instead proposed creation of a technical committee, which accommodated Jubilee Secretary General Jeremiah Kioni, according to Mr Musyoka. Tomorrow we have an opportunity to demand these interim measures,” a senior Jubilee official told Mr Musyoka.
