Former prime minister Raila Odinga and Uhuru Kenyatta have long been buddies. Even though they have experienced their fair share of problems and misunderstandings, they constantly strive to be friends and cooperate.
There are many pictures of the group from a few years ago, but Kenyans seem to like this particular one the best. They appeared to be heading somewhere together in the picture. They were both carrying umbrellas and had bodyguards.
Raila Odinga
Raila Amolo Odinga was born 7 January 1945, also popularly known to his supporters as Agwambo, is a Kenyan politician. He was the last Prime Minister of Kenya. He was elected in 2008. He was leading to a coalition government from 2008 to 2013. He was the last prime minister of Kenya until the position was abolished in 2013.
Many Kenyans consider Odinga to be a firebrand, a notion reinforced by statements in his biography suggesting he was involved in a coup attempt in 1982. He is now attempting to present a more composed, professional demeanour. Fidel Castro is the name given by Odinga to his firstborn son, who was educated in the disused East Germany.
