Opposition Leader Raila Odinga’s consistent meetings with top government leaders in his Capitol Hill office has left many Kenyans wondering on the exact role of the ODM boss in the current government.
Since the former Prime Minister entered into the famous handshake President Uhuru Kenyatta, a number of leaders especially those drawn from the Jubilee Party have continued to troop his Capitol Hill to brief him on their progress.
Kenyans on Wednesday took to the social media to raise their concerns on the opposition leader’s newly found ‘job’ following an update he made on hosting Public Service, Youth, and Gender Affairs CS Margret Kobia for briefings.
“Hosted Public Service, Youth, and Gender Affairs CS Margret Kobia who briefed me on the preparations being undertaken for the upcoming International Youth Day,” Raila posted on his Tweeter handle.

This happened just a day after he hosted a delegation from the Lapset Corridor Development Authority on the briefings on the mega project which consists of seven key infrastructure projects in the region.
“Received a delegation from the Lapset Corridor Development Authority that brings together Kenya, Ethiopia and South Sudan. They briefed me on the mega project which consists of seven key infrastructure projects in the region”.

See what a section of Kenyans reactions on Raila’s consistent meetings;
You’re being briefed by senior Government officials more than Ruto-literally running things while Uhuru is away! Your political strategies are a master-piece. Hope one day, you will put them down in a Book.

Raila’s political strategy is the reason he has never been close to power. The guy won the presidency more than twice but here we are with his “master piece” strategy…😂😂😂
