Raila risks soiling his legacy after deal with Kenya Kwanza

ODM leader Raila Odinga is on the cusp of becoming the African Union Commission (AUC) Chairperson. The position has previously been held by men and women from West Africa, Southern Africa and Central Africa. The Eastern African region is in good stead to produce its next holder.

Back home, though, he's now the focus of odium, thanks to a deal he's made with the William Ruto-led Kenya Kwanza regime that culminated in the appointment of ODM Party's top honchos, Wycliffe Oparanya, Hassan Joho, John Mbadi and Opiyo Wandayi to the Cabinet amid youth-led calls for, among other things, accountability, an end to official corruption, incompetence in public service provision and tax hikes.
