It was disheartening to learn of the death of Raila due to malnutrition. Of course the Prime Minister is up and kicking, and malnutrition is one of the remotest ways through which he can link up with his ancestors.
You probably recall the woman who gave birth to triplets and named them Raila, Kalonzo and Kibaki. Perhaps the young Raila could have been alive today had the Prime Minister made follow up on the welfare of the baby named in his honour. Palaver hopes President Kibaki and Vice-President Kalonzo Musyoka would ensure that the young Kalonzo and Kibaki would not suffer their brother’s fate.
