PEELING BACK THE MASK ('of Raila')-Whats really behind it??


The Rt. Hon. Raila Amolo Odinga, the Prime Minister of the republic of Kenya has come under sharp criticism and allegations from his former advisor and friend, Miguna Miguna.In his recently launched book, Miguna Miguna speaks of what he calls 'Impunity and Incompetence' of the Prime Minister in matters of leadership to our country and how he (Miguna) has exclusive evidence on how the ODM inner circle was involved in the planning of the P.E.V clashes which left 1,600 Kenyans dead and 650,000 displaced, which still remains a dark moment in our county's history. He equally dares whoever feels wrongly implicated to take matters to court for he is ready to face and fight them in court. The Raila's camp has now decided to fight back, blow by blow on all allegations raised by Miguna Miguna. How did it all start? Miguna was fired from his position as Hon. Raila's adviser on coalition matters in 2011 and he took it bitterly and promised to reveal the real person in Raila. And to stick to his words, he launched his book, Peeling Back The Mask, which explosively speaks of the massive graft and wrongs happening in the ODMs side. This has come with sharp criticism from all corners of the country, both opposing and/or pro-Raila.Lobby groups from both sides(opp & Pro) have called on Miguna to go to court or police and write a statement to prove what he is saying and implicate his so accused. Miguna came out strongly and opposed any views of him going to record such, and publicly said he reserves the right to do so at will. When will the truth be known? Kenyan Youths need to ask themselves that and figure out who to trust with their country. At this point, am left wondering how all this has been happening. Is it true that the Prime Minister's office embezzled the Kazi Kwa Vijana funds?  Is it true that the ODM senior officials who are not at the Hague list of suspects plan the PEV? Is Raila a non-reformer, given his track record in his Own Constituency Kibera slum? Many questions need answers, and we, the Kenyan Youths need to ask ourselves before its too late!!
