Even as he embarks on a charm offensive across the country, Prime Minister Raila Odinga may first have to deal with the ‘Luo factor’ squarely ahead of the General Election.

The ‘Luo factor’ has got to do with beliefs about the community that have previously dissuaded some from voting for the PM. Others include fears of a Luo-presidency and the discomforting over enthusiasm of those who rush to the defence of Raila.

Well aware of these factors, last weekend the PM confronted the issue at a funeral in Ndhiwa constituency, South Nyanza. He asked the Luo to tone down on perceived arrogance, embrace other communities, and pay up for rented houses in towns.

There goes the future president, now you know.

Will those who were not paying rent start paying from this month or past rent arrears will be considered?
