Former Prime Minister Raila Odinga has returned to Kenya after undergoing treatment in Dubai for a nerve disorder.
According to his daughter Winnie Odinga, Raila is feeling good and fresh after the successful procedure.
Winnie posted a video of her father on Twitter, where he expressed gratitude to his friends and supporters for their messages of goodwill during his treatment.
"I want to thank all my friends, supporters and all youth who have sent me messages of goodwill. It has been amazing and wonderful. It makes you recover so fast," Raila said in the video.
His wife Ida Odinga had earlier stated that Raila was out of danger but would not be returning to Kenya soon, as he needed more time to rest and recover.
Ida clarified that the family was pained by rumors on social media suggesting that Raila was suffering from other ailments, terming them utterly outrageous.
