Governor Gladys Wanga’s Statement On Nyeri County governor Celebrating The Passing On of Raila Odinga.
SHAME ON YOU KAHIGA
For three consecutive days before his sudden death, Rt Hon Raila Odinga expressed shock at the capacity of human beings to be evil and heartless and the new low our politics had hit. This followed social media reports of his death and images of his “body” being received at the Lee Funeral Home. Raila believed this was politics at its dirtiest and someone was behind it.
Today, Governor Mutahi Kahiga came out with a very rare admission: that for him and his supporters, Raila’s death was their prayer answered. Kahiga has long thrived on bursts of false and outrageous allegations, personal insults, fear mongering and ethnic profiling, especially when it comes to the Luo nation and Raila Odinga.
Still, none of his past public outbursts have been as primitive, insensitive and insulting as what he said today about Raila, the luo nation and the sharing of the national cake.
As Kahiga’s colleague, I am ashamed of his words. I am offended as chair person of ODM and and a believer in Raila Odinga and what he bequeathed our country, I take serious offense at Kahiga’s outbursts.
It is time for all who value the unity of this country to take a stand and condemn this depth of tribal hate being championed by Kahiga and those who think like him. We must all stand up and condemn Kahiga for his tribal chauvinism and being more consumed with himself and his tribe than with the nation’s well-being. Chauvinism like Kahiga’s has set many nations aflame. They could do in Kenya too.
We all have a duty to call out Kahiga and demand that he appreciates that Kenya belongs to all.
Kahiga’s sentiments are way off our values and aspirations as a nation.
Kahiga must immediately resign as vice chairman of the Council of Governors.
HE Gladys Wanga, EGH
