Raila said he was robbed, agreed to take half a loaf

Prime Minister Raila Odinga often captures the 2007 presidential election debacle with analogy of a hunter who had to share his kill with a bystander. "You assisted with a weapon that I used to spear the animal. But when I dashed to the bush I found another man pulling the carcass, claiming it belonged to him. In the process of staking my rightful claim, people started fighting over the animal and I agreed to share it to avoid more bloodshed," explains the PM.

He often regales the crowd with the line; "They had guns and we had stones.’’
