Why I am a Raila fan not fanatic

Few men have achieved the success of the political enigma that is, Raila Amollo Odinga. Fewer have gone through what he went through when this country was in dire new of reforms. He walked out of his father’s shadow in those moments and rose up to cast his own shadow. The son of Jaramogi has been through hell and back only to rise up every time stronger and more vibrant in more than one way. He stands tall among his contemporaries as a man who drew crowds rather than following the crowd. He stood up when others cowered and trembled in fear of powers that may be of the day.

The master orator is known for his witty riddles and rhetorical narratives. He is not known to disappoint his audience every time he stands on the podium. He will lash out at the government emphatically and boldly. Through the years he has been one of most-talked about politician in Africa and beyond. Some have even suggested that he joins the league of eminent personalities in Africa. His visit to foreign states in African and abroad is met with respect and amazement. Raila is a patriot. He is never one to back out simply because of dissuading circumstances.
