NASA presidential candidate Raila Odinga lighted up social media on Wednesday after he shared photo of himself in a prayer session at the Western Wall of Jerusalem.
Odinga is in the holy land where he is expected to deliver an address on democracy, religion and peace in Africa.
"I began the tradition of writing down my wishes for this country during my time in Detention. For those of you who may not know Detention is a miserable place with time mostly spent alone. You are completely alone for 23 out of 24 hours of the day. Those days it would take sometimes six months to pass letters between my loved ones and myself. With a lot of time on my hands, I used to write down the many wishes I had for the people of Kenya. Every time I visit, I take one of those wishes and place it on the wall," said Raila.
The former Prime Minister has always been comparing himself to the biblical Joshua, and he has always been talking of pushing for better lives for Kenyans if elected in August.
