Raila Dispels Illness Rumors after Worrying Video Emerges Online [Video]

Opposition leader Raila Odinga has assured Kenyans that he’s well and in good health after a worrying video emerged online on Sunday evening.

Odinga was attending SportPesa Super Cup final match between Kenyan sides Kariobangi Sharks and Bandari FC at Tanzania’s national stadium in Dar es Salaam when the video was captured.

In the video that has gone viral on social media, Odinga’s aides are seen hurriedly taking him out of the stadium.

Odinga poses with the winning team, Kariobangi Sharks, but shortly after, he appears to stumble and is quickly taken out of the arena by two of his bodyguards.

“Dear Kenyans and friends from around the globe, I am well and in Good health. Thank you for your concern,” Odinga says in a tweet on Sunday night.

In a statement, Odinga’s spokesperson Dennis Onyango says the ODM leader was taken out after the podium began to fall off.

“H.E Raila Odinga is fine in Dar. Images of security people holding him emerged from a step on the podium that was falling off and not anything to do with health. Thanks to everyone who has expressed concern,” says Onyango.

    Pona haraka Raila. Dennis Onyang’o that podium is not falling. How comes the other people on the podium are not falling like baba.

      Onyango sees what he wants. He needs a detox from kenyan politics and kenya media. He has been dealing with Junkies and githeri media for a long time.

      Dennis Onyango needs to be put in one of the other 2 AU offices.

    His knee locked. This has happened to me and I have no known health issue and almost half his age.

    This has to do with exercising-gym. When you go to the gym on regular basis- for years and years, you have such issues.

    My understanding is Raila exercises at least once a week.
    He needs to change his routine at the gym. His knees need a break…or that’s what I tell myself.?

      Sasa wewe kwisha pima yeye? Hii mdomo yako kubwa naongea maneno miiingi na ingine hata hapana elewa.

    That is a sign from above. RETIRE! Your obsession with being president will be your undoing. Many of your blind supporters have died all for the sake of your desire to be president in riots and tribal clashes. You have been the undisputed leader of your tribe for years but there is little to show. Your record on the sugar industry, fishing, AIDs, hyacinth are very telling of the calibre of leadership to expect from you. RETIRE!!!

      @ Jamama, he is already retired. Earning a cool check of sh.800,000 amonth as retirement benefits.He just loves to be in the spot light as opposed to the shores of lake victoria fishing,and rocking the boats.
