Why Raila should Delegate some of his duties to DP William Ruto

The country almost came to a standstill on Sunday afternoon after a footage emerged from Tanzania showing AU envoy Raila Odinga being held by his aides because he couldn’t walk.

Raila was in Tanzania to attend the 3rd edition of the Sportpesa Cup finals pitting local rivals Bandari and Kariobangi Sharks. He handed the trophy to the eventual winners Kariobangi Sharks.

But the images of him being held were a huge concern for his huge followers. It dampened the moods of many after such a high octane football match. Some questions were raised of whether Baba was tired. After all, he has been criss-crossing the continent in recent times.

On Thursday, Raila had traveled to Congo to attend the inauguration of President Felix Tsishekedi in Kinshasa. Before that, he had attended the burial of renowned Music Producer Bruce Odhiambo. On Friday, he was one of the keynote speakers during the National Anti-Corruption Conference at the Bomas of Kenya.

As you can see, Baba has attended several functions. Fatigue was bound to catch up with him anytime, especially with his age. So what is the solution to this problem?

I think Raila should think about delegating some of his duties to DP William Ruto. The DP has a lot of free time especially after his duties were given to Fred Matiang’i.

Since the beginning of the year, Ruto has not attended any meaningful function. The man from Sugoi has been reduced to holding prayer meetings at his Karen Home.
