Rosemary Odinga showed significant recovery from partial blindness at the silver anniversary of her grandfather and Kenya’s first Vice President Jaramogi Oginga Odinga over the weekend.
The first born of ODM leader Raila Odinga suffered a brain tumor that caused a mild stroke in the run up to the last elections, forcing her to drop her ambitions for the Kibra parliamentary seat.
Dr. Oburu Odinga, the family’s spokesperson, went on to reveal that Rosemary was well on her to full recovery.
“As you know Rosemary was sick but we thank God she has now recovered fully she is a true Odinga and a fighter. This is evident in the spirit she has fought this illness with,” he asserted.
Her mother, Ida Odinga, went on to clarify that the reason for their absence during the previous years’ similarly themed function was because Rosemary needed to undergo specialized surgery in China at the time.
Raila held her hand during the procession, and despite having her white cane on her other hand, some of her actions affirmed that she was potentially on her way to regaining her sight.
