Kenyan opposition leader Raila Odinga told AFP on Wednesday he would not hold talks with President William Ruto over anti-government protests unless a third-party mediator was present.
"He is not somebody you can trust, he keeps changing words that is why I insist they must be a mediator between us," the veteran opposition leader said in response to Ruto's offer to meet with him.
