He will run for President in 2017?
Kenyans are a very forgetful lot. Be out of the limelight for 2 months and nobody will remember you. So Raila without any title; he is not a member of parliament, he is not an official of ODM, he is not a senator, not leader of the opposition, no title at all except former prime minister. Once the cameras move away and newspapers stop printing his name he is politically ineffective and will be very hard to come back.
I think his best chance of survival would be to call for ODM NEC meeting and start campaigning for election of officials and get himself elected chairman...... lakini hata hiyo ni ngumu.
