Former US President Barack Obama Expected to Grace President Uhuru's Swearing-in Ceremony

Reports indicate that former US President Barack Obama may be one of the dignitaries from the international community expected grace President Uhuru Kenyatta's swearing-in ceremony to be held in the coming weeks.

State House Chief of Staff Joseph Kinyua, who will be heading the President swearing-in committee, said that a list of foreign dignitaries is being prepared.

He said that the list proposes those the government intends to invite to the occasion, if the election of the President-elect is not successfully challenged at the Supreme Court.

Paul Kagame (Rwanda), Yoweri Museveni (Uganda), John Pombe Magufuli (Tanzania), Jacob Zuma (South Africa), Nigeria’s Muhammadu Buhari who has been out of Nigeria on a medical vacation for 97 days are some of the African Heads of States on the list.

European leaders led German Chancellor Angela Merkel and United Kingdom Prime Minister Theresa May are also in the high profile list.

Liberian leader Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Africa billionaire businessman Aliko Dangote, His Highness the Aga Khan, former Italian PM Matteo Renzi and China’s President Xi Jinping will also be invited.

“We are basically preparing for the swearing-in ceremony of the President even as we go through the constitutional timelines and processes. That list basically contains the President’s friends, African and other world leaders we intend to invite for the fete. It is just an ordinary preparation process,” one of the committee members said.

This odingaism(i.e pure deceptive,nonsensical foolishness) is not good for anyone.Not even LUO's. Now Rao is talking about slum dwellers who are really daily laborers not going to work on Monday.This is just plain stupidity.I think that other Luo leaders in the country need to have a Short-term to Long-term strategy of leading the LUO people in a different direction.A more Peaceable and Development Conscious Direction.The LUO people should not allow themselves to be consistently misled by nonsense.

More proof the election was not stolen. NASA was the one attempting to steal; however, they could not disclose the source of their 8+ million votes for Raila. End of the road for Raila is here and he needs to concede and move on.

@Sokora the document they presented to iebc purported to have been from one mole in the iebc is a forgery. Iebc have stated thay their own is on oracle platform while the Joshua's is microsoft's.
It's an offence to utter a falsified or forged particlars. Those concerned should be arrested immediately.

This is the best time for sane Luo leaders to detach themselves from Odingaism and forge a new direction. With every foolish statement he loses any little morsel of respect that he had.
