The international media has once again weighed in the political situation in Kenya after the just concluded August 8, polls.
In an article published on Sunday by New York Times, the editorial team talk by and large on NASA presidential candidate Raila Odinga who lost to President Uhuru Kenyatta by over 1.4 million votes.
The piece coined a new name for Odinga calling him a perennial loser who started crying foul way before the results were released.
"Raila Odinga, a perennial loser, began crying foul long before the election commission declared that President Uhuru Kenyatta was re-elected with 54 percent of the vote to Mr. Odinga’s 45. Mr. Odinga’s unsubstantiated claims have already touched off rioting in parts of the country, and the violence could spread," reads part of the article.
The article titled 'The Real Suspense in Kenya' has received both positive and negative sentiments from Kenyans on social media with some condemning it while others praising the piece as rightfully hitting the nail on the head.
