BY KORIR JUMA/NAIROBI,29TH OCT 2017-National Super Alliance NASA leader Raila Odinga has condemned in the strongest terms possible the violence meted on the residence of Nairobi’s Kawangware area in the recent days leading to deaths and destruction of property.Speaking at Gatina PAG Church on Sunday, Mr Odinga claimed that Kenyan politics have been militarised.
Accompanied by MPs Simba Arati (Dagoretti North), Chris Wamalwa (Kiminini), George Aladwa (Makadara); and women reps Florence Mutua (Busia Woman rep), Gladys Wanga (Homa Bay) and Esther Passaris (Nairobi),.Odinga added that his popularity is nationwide and that President Uhuru Kenyatta is using “force to rule”.
“Kenyans want justice, not rule by force. The road to Canaan is still on course. Kenya needs a selfless leader to deal with tribalism, which Jubilee cannot solve,” he said.
Odinga who plans to hold a series of Rallies in Kawangware in the cause of the day added that NASA has policies that would accelerate the nation’s growth, such as poverty eradication.
Regarding the quorum hitch at the Supreme Court that prevented the hearing of an election petition case from proceeding, he said it “was an indication of a crippling Judiciary”.
He further likened the Jubilee governance to the late Uganda President Idi Amin’s dictatorial regime.
