There is a well-choreographed story doing rounds on social media questioning Raila's ability to clinch the Presidency after three ‘failed attempts’. The creators of this debate argue out that Raila is best suited in marshalling his nationwide support to vote a different candidate like he did in 2002 in support for former president Mwai Kibaki than marshalling the same voters to support him.
