WITH INTERVENTIONS on the Mau Forest crisis, the Grand Regency Hotel sale and the Port of Mombasa, Prime Minister Raila Odinga is displaying a rare kind of leadership as he defines the functions of future president.
There is now no longer a question of what power-sharing meant.

The early efforts to use Vice-President Kalonzo Musyoka to cut Mr Odinga down to size have been abandoned, and it is now quite clear that the Prime Minister stands right next to the President in terms of the pecking order and Kibaki can't take a single step without consulting Raila.

With the President in his usual repose, it is Mr Odinga who has moved in to crack the whip across all functions of Government. Kibaki has always talked about accountable and efficient Government, but it his former arch-foe, Mr Odinga, who is out in the field whipping everybody into line.
Those who had earlier dismissed him as a socialist or communist might be dumbfounded by the way in which he has courted Western investors.

Mr Odinga has been extremely busy since he assumed office, becoming the face of Kenya on the international forum, and energetically pushing the countrys case in the global economic community.

Do you qualify to be a leader by ordering the burning of women and children in the church?

He can do anything work anyhow but its only a fool like you who has forgoten that this man is as evil as Idi Amin or Saddam Hussein.

But probably you are also the same, anyway continue with you campaign.

Utterly Deluded... There is a difference between hogging the lime light on mere rhetoric and there is actually doing something. Jumping on any band wagon going isnt leadership. All this globetrotting is typical to the man and we all know where our priorities lie..

Thisis typical us against the rest attitude that nearly brought down the country.

All the author has said in this port is true unless like the previous two responses you are living in denial.

No politician in Kenya is absolutely clean but it is becoming obvious Raila is among the best we have at the moment.
