Former Prime Minister Raila Odinga’s claims that he was the whistleblower in the Fake Gold Scam continues to haunt him as more and more scathing attacks keep being directed his way.
Day’s after William Ruto and the Tanga Tanga Squad asked Odinga to come clean on his role in the fake Gold Scam, Odinga is not yet a man at peace at by the look of things, the former Prime Minister will have it rough in the coming few weeks.
DP William Ruto’s blogger Dennis Itumbi has today mocked Raila Odinga on Social Media with an edited pic of the AU High Envoy for Infrastructure showing his face covered with Gold.
The Picture doing rounds the internet with the caption #Goldinga has elicited mixed reactions among Kenyans with many hitting back at Itumbi for being petty.
Well, about 5 days ago, Raila Sensationally claimed that he travelled to the United Arab Emirates to meet with it’s ruler Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum in Dubai over the scam, which has sucked in the names of President Uhuru Kenyatta and Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i.
Raila said that from what he encountered in Dubai, CS Fred Matiang’i was innocent of all the allegations being peddled about him with relation to the scam.
“I told the royal ruler that the voice he heard on phone was not that of the minister. I know Matiang’i’s voice and the callers were simply using it to advance their agenda,” said Mr Odinga.
Deputy President William Ruto later took on Mr. Odinga and asked him to stick to his role as AU High Envoy for Infrastructure.
The DP told Mr. Odinga that his Role as head of Infrastructure did not include investigating crimes like the Gold Scandal.
MPs allied to Ruto on the other hand called on Mr. Odinga to record a statement with the DCI and help with Investigations.
Odinga is being seen by people in Ruto’s camp as a person of interest in the Fake Gold Scam and with that he continues to be attacked left, right and center just like Dennis Itumbi did.
Itumbi’s attack resulted to a number of reactions as Presented Below.
This is the same 2013/17 Jubilee politics…the gaslighting…the graphical corruption of Raila’s image…the insults….the doomsday blogs and videos…this was Jubilee’s online propaganda strategy and its happening all over again. No focus on issues. Just insult Raila.

I said this b4 & I’d like to repeat it here, since so many politicians and their errands boys have their political livelihood pegged on how much vitriol you have towards Raila, I think it’s time Raila starts receiving royalties for keeping some people relevant.
