Opposition leader Raila Odinga's high-profile return to the country on Monday was well calculated to give him as much political mileage as possible in his fight against the Kenya Kwanza government.
It was reminiscent of 2014 when he returned after a long stay in the US to be welcomed by large crowds in Nairobi's Eastlands area and along Jogoo road before holding a massive rally at Uhuru Park.
Like 2014, when he claimed that his victory in the 2013 presidential election was stolen, his Azimio la Umoja coalition claims he was the victor in the 2022 presidential elections.
