In Dholuo, we love saying “Ngima ema duong.”
It means that the gift of life is greater than anything else. It implies that as long as there’s life, we can do anything.
That as long as you’re alive, there’s room to try again. And again.
Thinking about it always makes me smile.
This doesn’t feel real. At all
Raila is one of those people who have always seemed invincible. You kinda just assume he will always be there, outlasting every season.
Kara nobedo nade?💔
We will mourn Raila Odinga like we never had any differences with him. We will mourn him not because he was always good to us, but because the democracy we enjoy today stands on his shoulders. He bears the scars, and he deserves the credit.🕊️
