As 2015 came to a close, leaders drawn from the government and the opposition put aside their political differences to wish Kenyans a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year. But my attention was drawn to an opinion piece by CORD leader Raila Odinga in one of the daily papers.
According to Raila there is nothing for Kenyans to cerebrate about. While citing corruption and insecurity as some of the key challenges the country is facing, he lamented that the Jubilee government spent 2015 fire-fighting. He, however, hoped things would get better in the New Year
