At 73, Raila Odinga still hits the gym to keep fit if a video posted on Twitter by blogger Robert Alai is anything to go by.
However, his struggles to keep up with the rest of the team, which consisted of a much younger generation, did not escape the notice of the controversial blogger.
“The person who shot this video just wanted to embarrass baba. Please @RailaOdinga please doesn’t go back there,” Alai captioned the one minute clip.
Majority of Kenyans jumped to the defence of the former premier telling off Robert Alai. At some point, the comments turned into insults.
“I am no longer a Baba fan but I don't see anything wrong with the video. He is actually fitter than I thought, maybe even fitter than you because I reckon that with your big head, you may experience some big challenges keeping up,” commented @amechokapunda
“For Baba’s age,he’s doing just fine ,,you on the other hand ...at your “young” age unakuliwa bibi .Focus !!!” @NyarNyamwa
Most of the comments lauded the efforts of Raila, the new AU appointee.
Well, at that age, he is doing quite well considering the fact many of us do not even know the location of the nearest gym.
