Raila Odinga has given the presidential sho three times notably loosing all those times to his close competitors. In 2007 he lost to the then president Mwai Kibaki and in 2013 he lost to Uhuru Kenyatta.
In 2017 he is playing a rematch with Uhuru Kenyatta and this time he might be lucky enough to toe down Uhuru. Below are reasons why Raila might just be the fifth president.
1. Raila has numbers. The IEBC has a total of close to 19million voters and Raila and his pentagon principles now claim having numbers close to 10 million now singing in and out of the streets the slogan 10 million strong. This slogan might be true or just a mind game to the jubilee party. He clams to be having all the Luo, kamba, luhya,coast and a half of the rift valley votes if it is true the Raila is surely the next president of Kenya.
2. Dynamics favors him. The country has been experiencing tough times and the opposition blames the tough times on the current regime for its crisis saying that they were not ready to lead the country to its destination. He says that he has the medicine to the ailing problem and due to this the voters might give him a chance.
3. He is always courageous. He has been always a whistle blower to corruption scandals and thanks to him they came to the public knowledge and as a way of saying thank you he might end up getting the prestigious post.
4.Kenyans sympathy. Since he has tried and not given up the Kenyans might want t try and see what he wants to offer, more so he has expressed that he will only be a one term president.
5.Change of taste: Kenyans have tasted the 5 years jubilee has offered and thus they feel like they should give Raila 5 years to feel hishis reign. Kenyan are desperate for a change in the government.
These are just some of the reasons why "BABA" might be Kenya five.
