Raila Odinga was rushed to a Karen hospital after the family and close friends determined that he was suffering from Food poisoning. They say that after he ate at the burial in Nyeri, it is speculated that that is when he started feeling uneasy.
According to his spokesman Dennis Onyango, he suffered severe stomach ache after he was complaining about uneasy stomach pains after the burial of the late governor Nderitu Gachagua two days ago. The former prime Minister was checked, treated and discharged.
The family tried to keep this information privately because it was as soon as he left Nyeri that was when he started complaining of stomach upsets. The opposition leader was to attend the devolution meeting in Naivasha as what the deputy president said but he failed to attend.
According to our sources, the first people to visit him in the hospital were wiper leader Hon Kalonzo Musyoka, Brother Oburu Odinga, ANC leader Hon Musalia Mudavadiand Ford Kenya Moses Wetangula.
The condition follows after eight days of admission at AgaKhan Hospital of his daughter Rosemary Odinga who later was flown to South Africa for proper Medication. The people who accompanied her daughter include her Mother Ida Odinga, family doctor Oluoch Olunya and other close family friends.
