2025 - A photo of former Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta, former Nigerian
President Olusegun Obasanjo, and Wiper Party leader, Kalonzo Musyoka, during a
recent meeting in Lagos has ignited debate across political circles and social
media.
The trio was attending the Future Africa Leaders Awards
2025, where Obasanjo was present as a guest of honor.
While the image may appear routine, in politics perception
often carries weight.
Obasanjo’s long-standing friendship with the late ODM leader,
Raila Odinga, has fueled speculation about possible behind‑the‑scenes
discussions.
Netizens have questioned whether Raila may have shared his
views on the 2027 presidential race with Obasanjo, particularly as Kalonzo - who
previously served as Raila’s running mate - emerges as a key opposition
contender against President William Ruto.
Uhuru, meanwhile, is believed to be quietly working to unite
the opposition, a move that has drawn criticism from some ODM leaders who
accuse him of meddling in party affairs.
ODM itself appears divided, with factions either supporting
Ruto’s administration or resisting the broad‑based arrangement between ODM and
UDA.
Whether the photo was a simple snapshot or a coded political
message, it has set tongues wagging.
For now, speculation abounds, and only time will reveal its true significance.
