the article goes on like this too..

But I am worried I could be wrong.

The reports that Raila Odinga could be seeking ways to reconcile with William Ruto concern me because I belong to the group that agrees with Moreno Ocampo, that William Ruto bears substantial responsibility for what happened in Rift Valley in 2007. I also find Ruto extremely unapologetic about all the chaos, and his comments on this terrible time border on the absurd; from it looking like a movie, to gas cylinder bursts. This is what made me wonder how Uhuru Kenyatta ever agreed to work with him in any political alliance.

"However of greater concern to me is the suggestion that Raila has offered to use his international networks to save William Ruto from the ICC process; the same way as he helped Henry Kosgey! The idea that someone can remove someone else from the ICC process suggests that it is possible for such a person to put someone else into such a process.

This is a dangerous implication when viewed in the context of suggestions from Uhuru Kenyatta’s allies that their leader is in the ICC because Raila put him there! If this were true I would feel very silly after all the work I have done in support of the ICC to-date.

It would also mean that what I have seen happening to Raila Odinga in the last four years was not genuine."

Those around him say what Raila means. Raila says what he wants you to hear.

His character is in the character of those who are close to him like his cousin Jakoyo. If you doubt go back to the days before FORD-K split, the days before the walkout from KANU, the early troubled days of NARC, the time they were together with Kalonzo before he left ODM-K to defect to ODM and the recent war with Mudavadi.

In all these cases, Raila is always confidently talking of how united the party is while he employs a few sycophants to fire at his rivals and threaten walkouts or massive defection.

To know what Raila means, listen to the likes of Midiwo. Raila's many words are just political entertainment.
