Kenyans across the country gathered in candlelight vigils on Friday evening to commemorate the first anniversary of the death of former Prime Minister Raila Odinga.
In Nairobi, ODM officials and Governor Johnson Sakaja led hundreds of Kenyans in a candlelight vigil at Uhuru Park, as the country began a series of activities to honour the late opposition chief.
The vigil, held under the theme ‘Mwezi wa Baba’, brought together supporters who described Raila as a hero, mentor and a key figure in Kenya’s struggle for democracy.
