Recognise Raila As a Statesman, Jubilee MP Urges President Uhuru
A Jubilee Party Member of Parliament has asked President Uhuru to recognize National Super Alliance (NASA) Raila Odinga as a statesman.
Addressing the press on Wednesday, Manyatta MP John Muchiri asked the Head of State to recognise the Opposition chief as a statesman, saying that it was inappropriate to assume that Odinga, who commands a huge following in the country, can be wished away.
Muchiri, who was speaking in Embu, further called for the formation of structures to grant Raila space to articulate national issues, saying that it is no longer tenable for the ruling party to continue dismissing the Opposition leader.
“Raila is not just an ordinary politician. Let us appreciate him and probably give him a platform to advance genuine political issues as the leader of Opposition instead of living in denial,” he said.
Odinga, who pulled out of the race for the October 26th presidential election has declared he will not recognise Uhuru as a legitimately elected president.

It would be a bad idea to make Raila a Statesman. It would set a bad precedent in the country in the country. It would mean that every politician who is not happy with the election results would be entitled for some kind recognition. Raila has killed more Kenyan than any other Kenyan in the history of Kenya since it's independent from England. He has killed more people than the terrorist group Al Shabab. Raila is a HYBRID terrorist and he should NOT be rewarded with Statesmanship.

He has turnished his legacy with his use of violence and threats of violence as an avenue to political office. Recognising him would be rewarding and encouraging more destructive tactics from him and others because his goal is not to be a Statesman but get to Statehouse and for that he needs to run and win no otherwise.

Verbal diarrhea, that's all it is! One minute, you don't recognize Uhuru as president, the next begging him to recognize this national traitor as a statesman! It's a contradiction in terms: Traitor versus statesman...Jamani!

There are many a leaders cum politicians who have commanded big followings, but have gone on and lost in elections. For example, Matiba, Hilary Clinton, Roy Moore, etc. We don't go out of our way to elevate their clout just because of that! Raila is not any different, and those proposing we treat him with deference seek to only prolong his demise which is eminent. Let the sleeping dogs lie.
