Saturday December 7, 2024 - Nandi County Senator, Samson Cherargei has blasted those criticising former Prime Minister Raila Odinga for joining President William Ruto’s Government.
Some Kenyans on X have been retweeting the hashtag #RailaMustFall,
suggesting that the former Premier’s bid for the African Union Commission
chairmanship will fail for working with Ruto.
But responding to critics, Cherargei stated that Raila has
been in opposition for over 40 years and he wasn’t born to be in opposition for
life.
"Kenyans on Twitter should give Raila a break! Where was
it written that he should be in opposition politics forever? He has done it for
over 40 years," Cherargei's statement read.
He argued that some Kenyans are upset because Raila is poised
to become the next African Union Commission chairperson, describing him as a
true Pan-Africanist.
Cherargei stated that opposition leadership is not exclusive
to Raila and suggested that others, such as Wiper Party Leader Kalonzo Musyoka,
can now take on that role.
