Politics grips a lot of attention in Kenya that so many fans are always eager to know the way forward for their favorite leaders.Although top influential leaders have advised against early campaigns for the 2022 general elections,many can’t help but start as early as now.
This is as opposition leader Raila Odinga has left people in the dark over his future political ambitions with many questioning if he will be on the ballot box.
In an interview with KTN News, senate minority leader Orengo was non committal on whether ODM leader Raila Odinga would be the flag-bearer.
The Siaya lawmaker instead said the Opposition leader did not want to mix campaigns for presidency with the handshake and his role at the African Union.
“We are very well organised about 2022. ODM as a party will be on the ballot box in one shape or another, I can tell you that. But what I can tell you for purposes of Raila is that he is involved in an exercise that if mixed up with 2022 may work against his politics,” Orengo said.
“If Raila was to put his campaign out there and at the same time be involved as an envoy and handshake, all that will not be good for his politics. He is very focused.”
Orengo also revealed a possible political merger between Raila and Uhuru that would result in the two being in the same camp.
