Raila Odinga and some of his 1990s Young Turk peers have made it hard for successive governments to trust him with power.
Not because he is not fit, but we know that a person becomes president once the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission's (IEBC) presidential returning officer (the IEBC chairperson) declares them winners.
However, in most cases, the opposition leader makes some moves that are politically correct for the present, but which ruin his prospects for the top seat. One such strategy that Raila has been using since 1997 is refusing to accept the legitimacy of the president who is sworn in.
