Wednesday, January 28, 2026 - Mumias East MP, Peter Salasya, has waded into the controversy surrounding businessman Oketch Salah, who has claimed to be Raila Odinga’s adopted son.
Speaking on Wednesday, January 28th, 2026,
Salasya insisted that the spirit of Baba -
the late Raila Odinga, remains alive and will one day compel Salah
to “spill the beans” about what really happened.
“The spirit of Baba one day will make Oketch Salah go mad and spill
the beans on what exactly happened,” Salasya said.
He praised Salah’s current direction, saying it allows
Baba’s spirit to continue guiding them towards the truth.
At the same time, Salasya emphasized that Raila’s children,
Winnie Odinga and Raila Junior, are the “true DNA of Baba” and could never
betray him.
His remarks come after Winnie Odinga strongly dismissed
Salah’s claims.
In an interview with Citizen TV on Tuesday, January 27th,
she said Salah was not present when her father passed away and described his
statements as false and dangerous.
“A flat-out lie that you were there at the time of my father’s
death and talking about things that did not occur is quite dangerous and makes
me question his intentions,” Winnie remarked.
Salah, who has published emotional tributes describing his
bond with Raila, continues to identify himself as Baba’s adopted son.
His remarks have fueled confusion and heated debate within ODM circles.
