Sunday, January 17, 2021 -Charged up Orange Democratic Movement ODM Party leader Raila Odinga is not a man who is going to sit down anymore as DP Ruto continues to eat into his strongholds.
Since last week, Odinga has been out campaigning both for his 2022 bid as well as the Building Bridges Initiative BBI Report.
Confirming this new schedule, Minority Senate leader also Siaya Senator James Orengo said that due to time factor it was important for their ODM members to regroup for the 2022 political course saying their silence in government could cost them.
“As the ODM party, we agreed to work with the government. But we will only do that if they do what we agreed. If they continue offending us we will go back to the struggle we used to have since we are the hope for the Kenyans,” Orengo said.
And today Sunday, the mark of Odinga’s campaigns was announced when the opposition leader tour was received by huge masses of supporters in Embakasi East Constituency.
“Embakasi East has spoken. They await the referendum that will lead to a better Kenya. They know the goal of a more united and prosperous nation with equal opportunity for all is at the heart of the BBI. I thank them for the warm welcome,” he updated.
ODM used the visit to drum up support for the BBI Report as well as the Referendum. They also did not spare William Ruto whom they said was a deceptive leader out to amass both power and wealth at all costs.
But Ruto who was in Rift Valley also answered them back in a long rant saying they(ODM) cannot pretend not to be part of the shortcomings in Jubilee government now that they are their Handshake partners.
He asked the ODM politicians to accept that they are indirectly in Government and therefore equally responsible for any blame.
