A section of leaders allied with President-elect William Ruto and the former Prime Minister has been claiming that Raila’s chief agent was to blame for his loss.
For instance, Kericho Senator-elect Aaron Cheruiyot and Uasin Gishu Woman Rep Gladys Boss Shollei earlier on claimed that Raila’s agents at the national polling center did not know what their roles were.
On Thursday, August 25, city lawyer Donald Kipkorir sensationally claimed that Raila Odinga was failed by the team he charged with protecting his votes at the Bomas of Kenya.
Kipkorir faulted Raila’s team for being incompetent; something he said could have cost Raila Odinga the presidency.
“Raila Odinga was let down and betrayed by the people closest to him and those who ran Azimio Secretariat. They lied to him they had everything under control. They lied all agents were in place and paid,” Kipkorir said.
In a quick rejoinder, Azimio la Umoja One Kenya Coalition party presidential candidate Raila Odinga’s chief agent Saitabao Ole Kanchory admitted that indeed there were mistakes that cost them the presidency.
While admitting, Raila’s chief agent said it was not time to point accusing fingers at those who failed but instead asked for those criticizing to come aboard and help solve the mess.
“There’s some painful truth to this but for now let’s be part of the solution. A time will come when the good, bad and ugly must be told, named, and shamed,” Kanchory said.
Kipokorir, a strong supporter of the Azimio la Umoja One Kenya presidential candidate Raila Odinga further claimed that the same people are lying to Raila about the Supreme Court case.
“Now, they are lying about the Supreme Court case instead of working on it to be foolproof,” he said.
