Art and sports are not what young people do until life starts. In the right environment they are the door to unlimited opportunities for work and job creation. From the pitch to the studios young people are already carrying more of our economy than anyone bothers to count. Arts and sports pia ni…

We don’t agree on everything. That’s the point of democracy. But on one thing we agree. It’s time for leadership that puts people first. It’s time for governance that answers to the people it serves. And it’s time young people stopped being a talking point and started being in the room where the…

County 047 it is! #winnieodinga

Where have I been? Honestly? Everywhere. Bondo. Homa Bay. Migwena. Down by the lake. In rooms with elders, in rooms with young people. Mostly listening. October took a lot out of me. It gave me more back. Aluta continua! #winnieodinga

Mlisema dust ni constant Wharathese😱🥺

When I meet young Kenyans from across the nation it's clear they have done everything that was asked of them. Finished school. Went back for the skills. Took the hustle seriously, took the small job, took the one after that. And the door still didn’t open. Qualified, sharp, and tired of explaining…

Bondo came dressed for business

A year on and you still showed up. Thank you to everyone who made the journey to Bondo, and to everyone who held him in their hearts and thoughts from wherever they were. Baba belonged to all of us and today we showed it. Asanteni! #rememberingrailaodinga #rememberingbaba #winnieodinga

Dad, I feel closest to you when I'm with your people. The spirit of our great country is carried in every story, every struggle, every person. I am humbled by the love and the strength I have seen today, and I can only hope to serve with the same zeal and commitment you did. #winnieodinga…

Bringing him home was the hardest thing I have ever done. I remember being so protective of his hat the whole way. it was his it still had him in it and it was the one thing I could still protect. I only let go when I could deliver it safely into the hands that had helped him wear it so many times…

Wedding guest in my wedding best

I have unlocked the gate, kujeni! See you in Bondo on the 15th of October at Migwena grounds. #RememberingBaba

"Democracy is the price of freedom." - RT.Hon.Raila Amolo Odinga

One day, those who never met Baba will walk through these doors. They will see the photographs. They will learn the history. They will hear the stories. And perhaps, they will ask what kind of man he was. Today, with the handover of his Mausoleum in Bondo, we take another step towards ensuring…

#RaparRaila

Amolo Pok wayudo “Rapar Raila”… Thank you my brother @coster ojwang music for the song and for the Fisherman’s Experience, thank you everyone for the love, and thank you for Remembering Jakom.

Baba left too soon for many to say goodbye properly. The elders, veterans, women and young people came together to share the words they had held onto. And yes, I received my fair share of counsel, too. Some things must be done properly.

**Option 8 — Community and legacy** They knew Baba long before the rest of us knew what he would become. They came to say their goodbyes, and to share their stories.

vibe check 💯 #winnieodinga

I've driven down this road more times than I can count. It's never felt the same twice. One road. One year without him. Going Back to Bondo. #winnieodinga #rememberingrailaodinga #rememberingraila #rememberingbaba

My dad and I started writing a memoir on a trip once. He'd write how he remembered something, then I'd write how I remembered it. At the time it was just something to do to pass time when travelling . Now it's one of the few places where his voice and mine are on the same page. #winnieodinga…

Recently I told a room full of readers , thinkers and learners to question my father's ideas and I meant it. That's not disrespect that's what he wrote them down for. He spent a lifetime on them so the next generation would have somewhere to start not somewhere to stop. #longlivethecrown…

They jailed him for his ideas. Decades later they honoured him for his words . Baba wrote nearly a thousand pages so the next generation would know how we got here as a nation. To our young people Read, because there are people who benefit when we don't know our own history #winnieodinga…

Our children will never shake his hand. But they will read his words, argue with his ideas, and grow up in the country he spent his life fighting for. That is the inheritance. #longlivethecrown #winnieodinga #rememberingbaba
