Former Prime Minister Raila Odinga has on Thursday promised not to betray Kenyans and instead follow their interest ahead of his ODM takeover.
The former Prime Minister will on Friday be in Busia County to attend ‘ODM at 20’ where he is expected to give his political direction and confirm his recent ‘handshake’ with President William Ruto.
“We are not going to betray our people in whatever we do. What we are going to do will be in the interest of our people of Kenya.

I have listened very carefully to the views expressed and I can say they have given me a carte blanche, a blank cheque, and they said they will support whatever we do,” he said
Raila who is set to confirm ODM pact with Kenya Kwanza admitted the shortfall in SHA saying that the system is efficient in other countries which have implemented it.
“The government is introducing SHA. It is not working, but I know countries where it is working. If it is properly implemented, it will be a game changer for our country,” he said.
The news comes at a time when those opposed to the government have called on the former Prime Minister to join there bandwagon and avoid further misdirection from President William Ruto.
