Kenyan citizens have been left wondering about the whereabouts of ODM leader Raila Odinga for the past week, with some speculating that he was in China for treatment, while others hinted at an Indian trip.

However, in a surprising turn of events, Raila's brother and family spokesperson, Oburu Odinga, revealed that the former Prime Minister was actually in Dubai for minor surgery at a high-end health facility owned by German nationals.

According to Oburu, Raila left the country on Sunday, June 21, and is currently in good health condition, with plans to return soon.

Despite the revelation, many questions still linger, including how the trip was planned and who accompanied the opposition leader.

On Thursday, June 25, 2020, the Daily Nation reported on Raila's Dubai trip, citing sources close to the family.
