ODM leader Raila Odinga on Friday October 15, 2021 brought Eldoret town to a standstill as a mammoth crowd came to welcome him.
The former premier is currently on a tour of the Rift Valley region that has been perceived to be Deputy President William Ruto’s backyard.
Raila started his tour with an engagement with leaders drawn from counties of the North and South Rift.
Hosted by Elgeyo Marakwet Alex Tolgos and other notable leaders, the 2022 presidential candidate sought to woo residents and leaders of the region that massively voted for him in 2007.
Raila sought to distance himself from the accusations that he abandoned the region after he entered the grand coalition government with the retired president Mwai Kibaki.
In his 2022 promises to the region, the ODM leader promised to revive defunct industries and factories that used the economy of the greater Rift Valley region.
