RAILA ODINGA will vie for the presidency in 2027 even if he becomes AU chairman – MOSES KURIA tells RUTO and his supporters

Tuesday, March 12,2024 - Public Service, Performance, and Delivery Management Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria has claimed that ODM leader Raila Odinga will be on the presidential ballot in 2027 even if he becomes the African Union Chairperson.

In an interview with one of the local FM stations on Monday, Kuria stated that the ODM leader will still be on the ballot in 2027, irrespective of the outcome of the AUC race.

The CS argued that Raila is seeking the AUC top job to keep him busy as he awaits a presidential contest in 2027.

 "Baba is filling time, so for him to get something productive to do is good instead of wasting a good brain. He was not born to be chairman of AUC, he was born to be a politician in national politics," Kuria said.

 According to Kuria, Raila will resign after serving for two years to concentrate on his presidential ambitions.

 "People who've got no bearing of history think that Baba is going anywhere. 

"Baba is coming back. He will do two years. 

"He is going to call it short and maybe give it to another East African to finish for him, maybe Kikwete, as he takes care of some urgent business," he argued.
