Raila losing focus, but don’t write him off just yet

There is a grave concern among die-hard supporters of Raila Odinga as the former PM and his political pillars viz Kalonzo Musyoka and Moses Wetang’ula seek to navigate turbulent political waters occasioned by factors beyond their control.

In a country where dangling of political carrot is legion, Raila, the master political strategist, appears to be fast running out of political ideas as his supporters impatiently wait for him to remove yet another political card to send Jubilee panicking.
Fears about the political future of the CORD supremo have reached desperation levels. Keen observers will have noticed that during his tour of Kibra on Wednesday last week, the PM donned a hat captioned (RAO), initials for Raila Amolo Odinga. At a time when the Okoa Kenya plebiscite calls appears off the rails and therefore in limbo, one would have expected the former PM to have been popularising it at his Kibra political stronghold.
