ODM leader Raila Odinga is currently viewed as an old man, full of political sayings, but don’t you think he was once a youth? Of course he was, and you could not imagine the how fashionable he was!
If you thought you are the first generation to put on casual fitting suits, then you might be repeating what Raila did! The outspoken NASA leader who has hence been appointed to the African Union Commission as the highest representative for infrastructure in Africa used to put up expensively, even after getting family.
His family seem to have adopted to his fashion quickly! Mama Ida, his wife, could also not be beaten in fashion. Was she a model? Well, her fashion tells more.
Raila was first elected as the Member of Parliament for Lang’ata in 1992, serving as Minister of Energy from 2001 to 2002 and as Minister of Roads, Public Works, and Housing from 2003 to 2005.
He was the main opposition candidate in the 2007 presidential elections running against incumbent Mwai Kibaki Following a violence-marred election and which he was the chief architect post-poll crisis.
Odinga was then appointed Prime Minister in April 2008 in a power-sharing deal with Mwai Kibaki, serving as Supervisor and Coordinator of a national unity coalition government, and now, can you really forget about the historic handshake between him and President Uhuru Kenyatta?
