Raila Odinga Flip-flops after Orengo’s allegations on a Plot to betray him

ODM mandarins have been forced to go back to the drawing board after Siaya Senator James Orengo alleged that a section of civil servants are out to block the ascendance of Raila Odinga to presidency.
Orengo’s allegations almost coincided with that of Oburu Oginga who revealed of a possible unification between Raila and deputy president William Ruto.
According to the Standard newspaper, Raila’s allies are pushing for the removal of interior CS Karanja Kibicho. Kibicho is believed to be an influential person in Uhuru’s government. DP Ruto also cried foul of Kibicho and alleged a plan that linked him to a plot to assassinate him. Kirinyaga governor Ann Waiguru also complained about Kibicho’s involvement in the conspiracy to dethrone her.
Raila was supposed to hold a meeting at Kamukunji grounds on Sunday, in what appeared as a public meeting to denounce Orengo’s assertion and assure the nation of his strong bond with President Uhuru Kenyatta. The flip-flopping Odinga had to change tune over his criticism against the government by linking deputy president and delinking the president from the failures of Jubilee government.
Raila Odinga is not new to controversy and if Uhuru betrays him the way he did to Ruto, then he will be swift to join hands with the DP in sabotaging the president’s agenda in and out of parliament.
As Uhuru’s succession gains momentum, there will be a series of betrayals and intrigues. During the burial of the father of Kalonzo Musyoka, Uhuru hinted that his preferred heir to the throne will be a shocker to many.

Why Ruto will heavily rely on Mudavadi, Joho in his reelection bid

 When Kenya president William Ruto was almost overwhelmed with gen z revolt, his landmark decision was to dismiss the entire cabinet. This occurred immediately after his refusal to sign the Finance Bill 2024/2025. Ruto endeavored to reconstitute a new cabinet, dubbed broad-based executive. He incorporated key opposition figures drawn from the ODM Party - a move that appeased the doyen of opposition Raila Amollo Odinga. Cabinet Secretaries drawn from ODM included: Hassan Ali Joho, Wycliffe Ambetsa Oparanya, John Mbadi Ng'onga and James Opiyo Wandayi. ODM is as good as dead, and Raila's age factor limits him from flying the Party's presidential flag again and has opted out by contesting as Africa Union Commission (AUC) chairman. President Ruto will heavily rely on two members of his cabinet in his reelection bid. Both Musalia Mudavadi and Hassan Ali Joho are billionaires going by their own assertion while appearing before the Parliamentary Committee on Appointments. President...
