Song and sea of orange as ODM delegates converge in Mombasa

Orange Democratic Party supporters in Mombasa

Mombasa, Kenya: ODM party supporters began gathering at Mombasa's Mama Ngina Drive Gardens as early as 7.00am breaking into song and dance and draped in party colours as they waited for party leader Raila Odinga's arrival.

Some youths spent the night at the venue taking care of huge tents erected on site and the music and public addresses that bellowed with songs and dance since Friday. Women, men and youths draped in ODM's orange colours lined streets, corners and thoroughfares singing and dancing songs in praise of Raila and Mombasa governor Hassan Ali Joho who was the host of the party's tenth anniversary festivities.
