Former President Uhuru Kenyatta Recognises Raila as His Party Leader
Former President Uhuru Kenyatta and Azimio la Umoja One Kenya coalition leader Raila Odinga are among the mourners who attended former Cabinet Secretary Prof. George Magoha’s burial in Siaya on Saturday.
Kenyatta, who left office last year, received a warm welcome as crowds cheered when he arrived at the Odera Akang'o campus in Yala for Magoha’s burial ceremony.
In his opening remarks, Kenyatta recognized Odinga as his friend, brother, and his party leader, promising to be there for him if he runs for office again.
“I am not looking for any seat, but if Raila looks for one, I will be there for him,” said Kenyatta, who is the Chairman of the Azimio la Umoja One Kenya coalition party.
Kenyatta praised Prof. Magoha for restoring sanity and quality in the country's education system
“At the time the country was facing numerous cases of exam cheating, I was convinced that he was the right person to deal with the vice after I saw his contribution in transforming the University of Nairobi,” he said.
He added that Magoha will be remembered for his role in the attainment of the 100 percent transition from primary to secondary schools.
“The Kenyan curriculum that he took keen interest to develop is also being emulated in Malawi and Zambia, among other countries,” he said.

😂😂😂😂 Rao is being played here while the train already took off to next destination!...Who's fooling who.??
Who cares???!!!
True to form, Uhuru Kenyatta is the best thing that ever happened to Raila Odinga. Finally, Odinga found the man who would willingly capitulate to him, worship him, be intimidated by him, do his bidding, kneel and grovel before him, abandon loyal supporters for him, and do anything else to remain a loyal lap pet. Good riddance.
