Edwin Sifuna: The Raila Odinga that I knew would never wish the worst even on his own worst enemy. Raila Odinga, in power or in cooperation with a party in power, would not allow the teargassing of the devil in church. You can call out Rigathi’s hypocrisy when he...

The day Raila Omollo Odinga tapped into Edwin Sifuna’s body, instead of joining the other spirits of politics, was the day Edwin Sifuna stood in front of all ODM mourners who were feeling very sad about the loss of Mzee Raila. Edwin Sifuna stood strong at the podium, in an orange shirt, and quoted the last wish of Mzee Raila Omollo Odinga, where he clearly stated that ODM will be in the 2027 presidential race, and they will only be in the broad-based coalition if the 10-point agenda is met within 100 days. That moment, for me, was more than politics. It was about carrying forward the wishes, principles and political legacy that Mzee Raila left behind. But as you can check from the news materials, youths have been killed, and some have even lost their lives while in police custody. The health sector is not working at all. Mwananchi is struggling, and the very issues that ODM promised to fight for are still staring us in the face. This is why I believe Sifuna understood the assignment. He didn't stand there to replace Raila. He stood there to carry the torch. And since that day, I have looked at Edwin Sifuna differently. Because sometimes, leadership is not about taking someone's position. It is about having the courage to continue the journey when the person who inspired it is no longer there. Mzee Raila may be gone, but the dream, the struggle and the responsibility to fight for a better Kenya cannot be buried with him. That orange shirt was not just a colour that day. It was a reminder. The struggle continues. 🇰🇪🧡
