We thank God for the gift of family. Happy birthday to the woman of our lives. Kevin, Keith, and I cherish your love, care, and affection. We thank God for this day as we celebrate your birthday. This day a year ago, we were huddled in a hospital room, sick, humiliated, devastated, confused, betrayed, beaten, and abandoned, and you were in tears on your 59th birthday.
Today, we thank God for His mercy, kindness, and favour. A year later, God has put a smile back on our faces, and our home is full of joy. As we celebrate your 60th birthday, our family stands as a clear testimony that God is no man.
Raila Odinga was a true champion of democracy. A child of independence, he endured decades of struggle and sacrifice for the broader cause of freedom and self-governance in Kenya. Time and again, I personally saw him put the interests of his country ahead of his own ambitions. Like few other leaders anywhere, he was willing to choose the path of peaceful reconciliation without compromising his core values. Through his life, Raila Odinga set an example not just for Kenyans, but across Africa and around the world. I know he will be missed. Michelle and I send our deepest condolences to his family and to the people of Kenya.
Former PM Raila Odinga heading home as cargo aboard @KenyaAirways hits hard. He will be remembered for all selfless service to the nation. Safe flight #RIPRailaOdinga
A Nairobi politician offered paid goons a bonus if they attacked me while covering protests.
Pro-government voices are calling for me to be arrested. But I will not be intimidated
