Kenya has lost more than a political leader, we have lost a symbol of endurance, conviction and hope.  The passing of former Prime Minister Rt Hon Raila Amolo Odinga, marks the end of an era in our nation’s democratic journey, and the beginning of our responsibility to carry forward his unfinished work. Raila’s name is etched in the pages of our history not because of the offices he held, but because of the battles he fought for justice, freedom, and equality.
