ODM leader Raila Odinga surprised many after undergoing grooming at a popular joint in Nairobi.
The Opposition leader went ahead of just appreciating the quality of service he had just received to note that he was feeling ‘young’.
After narrating a short analogy of Swahili terms for hair definitions, the 74-year-old politician stated that he was now feeling youthful and expecting to find a ‘ndogo ndogo’ to move around with.
Nimeona wameniangalia wameangalia makucha na kule chini kwa miguu wamenipamba vizuri, mpaka mimi nang’ara, sasa mimi natafuta ‘ndogo ndogo’ ( I have had my nails manicured and pedicure for my feet. I feel youthful now and only looking for a young girl.)

Mr Odinga is known for his controversial jokes that often excite his supporters whenever he rises to speak.
In the heat of Kibra by-elections, Odinga remarked that tha Kamba community were faithful and that, as a woman, if they promise, they honour their part of the deal.
This statement would, however, rub a section of Ukambani leaders the wrong way.
Former MP Wavinya Ndeti would lead the aggrieved leaders in demanding an apology from the former premier, a demand he rubbed off.
