ODM-KS leadership has welcomed the vision put forward by Raila Odinga on Sunday 6th May at the Kenyatta International Conference Center. As a Presidential candidate, Raila renewed hope that a solution to the political, economic and social crisis facing Kenya could be addressed.
ODM-KS welcomes Raila’s clear position regarding the thorny issue of tribalism especially the appointment of public servants on ethnic lines. Marginalization of minority ethnic groups has been a big issue in Kenya since independence. In his speech, Raila noted that once ODM-K takes power and he becomes President, marginalization of certain ethnic groups will be ended.
Corruption is a cancer that has been eating into the fabric of the Kenyan society since the days of independence. In taking a clear line based on zero tolerance to corruption, Raila was reminding Kenyans that he is well aware about the challenges facing him as a future President of Kenya.
ODM-KS will not dwell into the whole aspect of the speech here because it was self explanatory. The presentation of Raila’s vision marks yet another stage in the struggle against the corrupt Kibaki government which needs to be retired by Kenyans in December. The full text of Raila’s speech can be found at ODM-Kenya website at www.odmk.org.
