Azimio La Umoja One Kenya presidential candidate Raila Odinga has launched a fresh charm offensive in the Mt Kenya region as he works with leaders from affiliate parties to win locals.

After the burial of the former President Mwai Kibaki last week, Raila spent the night in Nyeri County and started his campaigns the next day at the ACK St Peters Cathedral flanked by a host of aspirants drawn from political parties under Azimio. After the meeting, he addressed a mammoth crowd chanting Baba slogans and he told them ‘Baba Amerudi’.
