Kenyans respond to Raila's call to supporters to wait for his directions on how to slay a 'rogue cat'

Speaking in Bondo and Kisumu during special prayers for those killed by police during anti-IEBC demonstrations, National Super Alliance (NASA) leader Raila Odinga asked his supporters to wait for a big announcement on October 25, the eve of the fresh presidential election.

During the prayers that took place on October 20, he reminded them that no amount of persuasion will make him take part in the process unless the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) is reformed. He said he has already foreseen what is good for Kenyans and will ensure he docks the ship where all Kenyans will benefit.

On a post later on his Facebook page, Raila stated, “The sages said that there are many ways of skinning a cat that has gone rogue and is devouring defenseless innocents. We have said no to the sham process planned in the name of an election. They have carried out heavy deployment of security forces in our strongholds as they seem to assume we are naive. This coming Wednesday 25th October I want you all to pay very close attention to what we shall announce that day. We shall give a message on how we are going to get rid of the cat that has been running amok and wreaking havoc in our land.”

This post on October 21 elicited various reactions from Kenyans, with majority taking sides and others finding humour in the proverbial cat.
