Following is an excerpt on Mr Raila Odinga's interview with ITN - Ref - http://www.youtube.com/w...lJs&feature=related

After ITN gave background on the slaughter going on in the slum where Luo gangs (Taliban) and Kikuyu gang (Mungiki) were killing opposing tribe members:

- QUOTE -

ITN : "Opposition leader Raila is trying to play it (post-election violence) all down"

A LAUGHING Raila Odinga: "This violence can be caused by anything. An example of a football match where fans of Man Utd fight fans of Chelsea and so on."

ITN: "Burning churches and mass murder have more in common with the spectre of rwanda than football matches"!!

Raila then belatedly condemns the violence.

- END QUOTE -

A leopard does not change it's spots.

NB: Mr Raila Odinga's comments were made during the initial phase of PEV where pro-ODM attackers were slaughtering suspected pro-PNU communities. Suspected pro-PNU attackers engaged in revenge attacks in later phases of the Kenyan 2008 PEV.

Someone should declare today as 'Raila Day' in wazua. Too many posts on the guy.
Great men are not always wise, neither do the aged understand judgement...

No one wants to admit his faults until when he will be in power.
Then we will spend the next 24 years trying to remove him from power.
If Ruto had said that!!!
