The 'president' of the people's republic of Kenya Raila Odinga has thanked all his supporters who turned up on Tuesday to witness his swearing-in. 

Raila also expressed his gratitude to Kenyans for the mandate they had given him.

The former prime minister further thanked God, his family and everyone who made the Canaan Job possible.

Below is a message he wrote on his twitter page moments after taking oath:

"I wish to thank the people of Kenya for the mandate they have given us and for their steadfast confidence in us. You came from all corners of the republic to witness my inauguration and it was good to see you out in millions," said Odinga. 

"Most of all I thank the good Lord, my family and all those who have undertaken this journey with us. We have arrived in Canaan; thank you for staying the course with us. Asanteni sana," he added.
