Whether you loved or hated Raila Odinga, you can’t erase his impact.
He fought, he failed, he rose, he fell.
But through it all, he made us talk about justice, fairness, and Kenya itself.
Now that he’s gone, who among our leaders truly fights for us, and who only fights for position?
It's upto us to do it ourselves. We are the ones to make Kenya better
Rest in peace
