Raila Odinga Finally Becoming Invisible In Kenyan Politics?

Hon. Raila Odinga And Governor Joho at a political function... 

What is Raila Odinga next move? This has been a grand question in Jubilee Party’s headquarters for a while, but still, no clue as the former prime minister steals political shows in the country.

Use of insults by the Jubilee administration to tarnish his name has been like trying to drown a fish in fresh water. The more they struggle to point a finger at Raila Odinga and his NASA team, the more they hit a nail on their own political coffin.

In recent opinion polls, Raila is leading the President Uhuru Kenyatta by an increasing margin. This means Jubilee’s campaign theme is not working against the NASA umbrella of parties.

Raila’s Political Goals to the Projected Victory

By now, it is almost clear who will emerge the winner on August 8^th, general elections in Kenya. However, we should not underestimate the power of ‘unknowns’ which might influence the final results.

For this reason, Raila Odinga has been busy breaking the two factors that might deny him victory come 8/8.

--Cutting The President's Influence in IEBC:

IEBC which should be Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission has been secretly following orders from the president of Kenya.

According to the laws of Kenya, the electoral commission should be an unbiased referee, who should not exchange favors with the players.

Well, you understand deal triangle between The president, IEBC commissioners, and the ballot paper printing firm. This confirms an existing influence that the state house has in a what should be a nonpartisan electoral commission. 

Anyway, I guess by now that unwanted relationship is done!

 --Sealing The Loophole That Denied Him Victory in 2013:

In 2013, the victory for President Kenyatta was sealed by cyber criminals who tampered with IEBC servers; cooked results and made sure there was no run-off election.

Anyway, this will not happen this year because the court order to finalize Presidential results at the constituency level has made it tougher for anyone to attempt it.

Now you see, only the unlikely factors might influence the reality; come August 8 general elections. We only hope for free and fair elections. 

Have your say!
