Baba's back to Kibra in hunt for votes not cast

Azimio la Umoja Leader Raila Odinga in Jakaranda Grounds Nairobi.

Raila Odinga aka Baba is away in West Africa and he promises to return this weekend, as we say in mtaa lingo, kwa fujo. He will return to his old haunts of Kibra, where he last appeared with hordes of youths in his trail, last August, as he went to cast a ballot in the presidential poll that he now disputes.

There is no way of knowing if the youths in question actually cast their own ballots and if they voted for Baba, but the dismal turnout at Old Kibra Primary School, at 56 per cent, does not tell a compelling story of their desire to install Baba as Prezzo.
