Opposition leader Raila Odinga has termed his famous March 9th handshake with President Kenyatta as a success, stating that it achieved immediate results.
Speaking in Kajiado over the weekend, Odinga said that he was proud to see that political temperatures in the country have toned down as a result of the handshake.
“When I decided to work with President Uhuru Kenyatta after that golden handshake, political temperatures came down. Everyone is now shaking hands for the good of our country,” he was quoted as saying by The Star.
The ODM leader, who spoke at Enkorika, Kajiado Central, said the handshake was all about reconciling Kenyans and not for personal benefits as critics have claimed.
Raila left the crowd in stitches when he said that the handshake has even gone global, as more world leaders emulated his gesture with President Kenyatta. He cited the recent meeting between arch rivals North Korean President Kim Jong-un and his South Korean counterpart Moon Jae-in at the world’s most militarised border.
“Three days ago, Korean leaders bonded over handshakes during a world summit in a positive mood that appears to break 65 years of North and South animosity ,”said Raila amid laughter from the crowd.
Odinga had attended a thanksgiving ceremony for ODM politician John Loisa at Enkorika, Kajiado Central.
