Speculation over ODM leader, RAILA ODINGA’s health grows as PHOTO surfaces from Dubai Hospital



Monday, October 6, 2025 - Amid growing speculation about ODM party leader, Raila Odinga’s whereabouts, keen-eyed Kenyans appear to have identified his location in the United Arab Emirates.

On Sunday, October 5th, a photo emerged showing Raila smiling alongside Awendo MP, Walter Owino.

The image, which quickly circulated online, was reportedly taken at King’s College Hospital in Dubai.

While the ODM secretariat confirmed Raila had left the country the previous Friday, they denied claims that he had travelled to Europe for treatment, stating instead that he was on a “medical holiday.”

Despite the clarification, questions persist about the nature of Raila’s visit to the hospital.

King’s College Hospital, with branches across the Middle East, is known for its advanced medical services, including orthopaedics, cardiology, gastroenterology and plastic surgery.

The facility’s reputation as a global leader in specialist care has only fueled speculation about Raila’s health, especially given his absence from public events for nearly two weeks.

ODM has accused opposition figures of politicizing the matter, singling out Eugene Wamalwa, Rigathi Gachagua and Kalonzo Musyoka for allegedly spreading rumours.

Gachagua, in particular, urged Raila to appear publicly to dispel concerns, stating, “My prayer is that God gives Raila a long life and good health.”

“I pray to God that he supports William Ruto so that we defeat both of them in 2027.”

As the debate continues, Raila’s supporters await further updates from the party.
