Winnie Odinga: US Influenced the Outcome of Kenya's Presidential Election in Ruto’s Favor
Opposition leader Raila Odinga’s daughter Winnie Odinga has claimed that the United States government influenced the outcome of the August 9th presidential election in favor of William Ruto.
Winnie, who is eyeing the East Africa Legislative Assembly (EALA) MP seat, said the US meddled in the election to deny Azimio La Umoja One Kenya coalition candidate Raila Odinga a victory.
She likened the US’ alleged interference in Kenya's presidential election to a person playing a virtual reality game.
"Have you ever worn virtual reality glasses? That is what Kenya is to them. You put it on and you play. Kenya is like a PlayStation to them," she said during an interview on Citizen TV on Tuesday.
At the same time, Winnie dismissed allegations that she sabotaged her dad’s 2022 presidential campaign by micromanaging his communication team.
"This is my father and I don't think anyone worked harder on that campaign than me except him. People were there for their own agendas; they were there to sabotage us and do all sorts of things but I prepared him (Raila) as best as I could for him to succeed," she said.
"He is my father; everyone can call him 'baba' but he is my father. I don't see any problem with being overprotective. When people look back they always look for somebody to blame. As much as I love campaigns, I was hardly on the campaign trail."
"You've heard politicians say I kept him away from them but they were out in the field with him. They were with him more than I was and I think it's a lot of mud-slinging. A lot of people are perhaps threatened because a lot of our skills came out," she added.

Could be the Evangelicals; the Conservatives. They can't Tell the Difference between s Hypo and a Real.
They did and it is unacceptable.
After 20 years of interfering & controlling Afghanistan , they handed the country over to Taliban Terrorists.
That’s American govt .
Narcissist liar 🤥 like the narcissist liar 🤥 the peoples conman!
The true definition of the Swahili verb ‘kuropokwa’
RAO team presented fake evidence to the Supreme Court, and they don't know who manufactured the fake evidence. This was in their total control. Now, they want to explain what the US did, which they did not have any control or visibility. Waiting for time when losers will accept.
Does she know kina Biden were busy in campaigns for their midterm elections?After all the US has/had nothing to gain from Kenya’s election or in any other way.Nyako should concentrate on her own safety as her blood-thirsty father,Raila can make her his next meal like her expired brother,Odhiambo.
Raila was Cursed by Jaramogi, It was live on KTN then under Jared Kangwana, No other station was registered then so it's good if KTN releases this video. Paul Muite, James Orengo, Musikari Kombo and Anyang Nyongo are witnesses to this and were very close and loyal to Jaramogi Oginga Odinga
If Your intention is to sink Me for a takeover, U will also struggle until Your sunset days trying to be President and U will never be. This were Jaramogi's words to Raila and Jaramogi died and was buried with Ford Kenya Flag but Raila went ahead and sunk that Roaring Party, He has also sunk Kanu, sunk LDP, sunk Jubilee for takeover but every time He fails since His own Father warned Him against sinking Parties for takeover. Can U imagine sinking Your Father's Party??
RAILA WAS CURSED BY JARAMOGI OGINGA ODINGA. Infact He was given a cursed name, read His name backwards... a liar
Folks, that is what we call bullshit. Pure cow manure.
Woman, ur dad lost, not the USA fault nor the Devil but the people of Kenya spoke n rejected the old man. Wake up from ur deep Ugali sleep n move on.
Lol. Rao shall never be president even if unopposed. Go clean up your family tree
Winnie, tell us exactly how USA influenced the elections,and free thinking Kenyans will decide if what you call "influence" truly benefited Ruto,and damaged your pop.While at that, tell us how Ruto's administration would benefit USA,as opposed to RAO's administration would not have benefited.Iam not finished.Also tell us why RAO made numerous trips to USA,the "bad influencer"?
In the first place Kenya has never taken matters seriously, even our independence was planned and played out by the Western powers. Miss W.Odinga just take a hard look into you late Grandpa and Fathers ordealful life, before stating the obvious.
