Oburu Oginga Raises Questions Over Raila Odinga’s Sudden Collapse.
The family of Odinga and his supporters are still trying to come to terms with the abrupt loss of Raila Odinga,
who collapsed at his home, leaving many in shock. Now, his elder brother Oburu Oginga has spoken out in confusion and sorrow over the unexpected turn of events.
During a function to mark the posthumous declaration of the late ODM party leader, Oburu revealed that he had spoken to Raila almost daily before his death.
“Unfortunately, when he fell ill, I did not expect him to die at this stage.
We talked daily, but one morning, I was told he had collapsed while walking around his compound, and that became the end of him,” he said with a heavy heart.

The incident has raised many questions among Kenyans who saw Raila as a strong and determined leader to the very last days of his life.
Tributes are flowing in from across the country, with many remembering him for his resilience, courage, and unwavering fight for democracy.
Oburu concluded his remarks with a simple emotional farewell: “Let his soul rest in eternal peace.”
In the silence that followed, the grief of a family and a nation was unmistakable.
It remains a mystery why Raila Odinga suddenly collapsed, but his legacy will indubitably persist.
