Kiongozi huyo wa Muungano wa Azimio la Umoja amesema Serikali imeshindwa kutekeleza ahadi ilizoahidi kwa Wakenya wakati wa kampeni za Uchaguzi.
Waziri Mkuu huyo wa zamani amesema "Wakenya walitarajia na kustahili kuondolewa kwenye hali mbaya ya kiuchumi, badala yake ruzuku ya Mafuta, Unga na Ada za Shule imefutwa”.
Aidha, Odinga amehoji Mageuzi ya Kiuchumi, Usawa wa Kijinsia, Mipango ya kuliondoa Taifa kwenye mzigo wa Madeni, na Ajira za Vijana zimeishia wapi na kuongeza kuwa katika 10% anampa Ruto 4% tu za Uwajibikaji.

Azimio la Umoja coalition leader Raila Odinga has censured President William Ruto over what he terms as failing to honor the promises he made to Kenyans during the campaign period.
In a communiqué on Thursday, the Azimio chief said Ruto's first 100 days in leadership, which were realised today, have been full of unattained promises.
Raila accuses Ruto's government of "pulling more Kenyans out of the frying pan and threw them into the flames" and the rays of hope for change are slowly dying down.
"These have been 100 days on the road to nowhere. Kenyans are worse off than they were during the campaigns when UDA promises flowed," read part of the statement.
The former premier brought to the fore the changes that have been effected since President Ruto sat into power, claiming that nothing has mirrored the numerous promises he had made to Kenyans.
"Where Kenyans expected and deserved a massive stimulus package to bail them out of the devastating economic circumstances, they got hit with the cancelation of the subsidies that had cushioned millions from the pain," said Odinga.
"Off went subsidies on petrol, diesel, electricity, paraffin and school fees in these 100 days. Quietly they did away with cash transfer to the elderly, Pesa ya Wazee and took away the Linda Mama programme that covered maternal services for economically disadvantaged mothers."
Mr. Odinga, therefore, noted that Ruto's administration is taking a cruel twist of their administration and that it "is taking away even the little that Kenya was offering its vulnerable."
Amongst the matters questioned, Mr. Odinga sought to know where the economic reforms have reached, the gender parity in electing women into cabinet slots, how efforts to offset the nation from its high debt ceiling are being made and where the promised jobs for the youth are.
"The government is not as efficient as the times require. There is too much incoherence, too many contradictions on critical issues," said Raila.
Raila concludes that "Ruto's administration is off to a terrible start" and nothing inspires confidence in the future or points to better days.
"Hope has faded. Overturning the rules and policies of the previous administration, despite having no plans of its own, is probably the UDA administration’s biggest 100-day accomplishment," he said.
"This is a below average regime. On a scale of 1-10, we would grade the regime at four points."
