:: Railafobia
Raila may be a mover but many a times his moving shakes people
the wrong way critics say. He is too headstrong and could cause
much radical changes especially if given a strong mandate. This
is seen in his footprints all along during his career as a politician
they claim. This mistrust has divided Kenya into two equally strong
sides "Railafobia vs Railamania" as expressed by former
Vice president Kijana Wamalwa.
His opposition to successive governments that he alleges 'have
looted his beloved Kenya' and led him into three periods of detention
without trial. He was detained for a total of eight years, six
of them spent in solitary confinement. "No matter the personal
cost, Raila shuns any option that involves compromising his own
or the nation’s integrity", quoting from His website.
As the MP for a constituency that houses a large
number of Nairobi’s urban poor. Railafobia have used the
fact that he owns one a state of the art top-range vehicle a hummer
while if he was a people's president this could go a long way
in alleviating the suffering of his constituents.
He attracts intense grassroots support bordering on heroworship,
and whose behaviour many a times makes others fear a Raila Presidency.
One of the main reasons Railafobia has been such strong is the
behaviour of His Supporters.
Does he have a short temper?
In an interview recently with KTN, Peter Opondo
Asked him quoting His Book "Raila Odinga an enigma in Kenyan
Politics" that Raila other side is his anger. That Raila
has a short temper and can be very harsh when he is angry. Raila
responded in the interview that he has very little time with mediocrity.
He does not have much time for "unreasonable" reasons
or things ...".but he respects other poeple's opinon's and
points of view and their right to express it"
Such qualities are some of the issues that worry
Raila's critics. They say that If he has such short tempers and
he is known to be headstrong we may have issues with him in power.
He may have wvery little time for say an irritant press pursuing
"unreasonable" angles of opinion to his government.
