Raila Odinga was not sent there,,in the US,,by the Kenyan government.

Secondly, how does he expect Uhuru Kenyatta to be good to him, when
he, Raila, refused to be present during Uhuru's swearing in ceremony
and he, Raila, chose to go to South Africa when the South African
president was in Nairobi?

He is in the US,,for whatever reason and that has got nothing to do
with many Kenyans nor the Kenyan government.

Everything is going very bad in his own party, the ODM, and here
this man is going around the US giving lectures which will not
benefit any Kenyans.

If i were him,,i will be spending more time in Kenya doing something
about the dying party,,,,,masikini,,O D M.🙂

How can he attend wakati hakubaliani na matokeo?kama hajaridhika na ana mashaka kwamba ujanja umefanyika then aende kusherekea na kumpigia makofi bila kupenda kisa kuonyesha uzalendo,Raila siyo mnafki hawezi fanya hivo.

You miss the gist of this post. Its not about the person of Uhuru or Raila. This is about the warped foreign affairs policy adopted by Kenya government and how it impacts on the country and the ordinary Kenyans.

#DonBen it is suspected that Rao might have gone to the U.S just for personal reasons,i doubt if it of foreign relations.

it is very difficult for a politician that is used to having clout and then he suddenly realizes that domestically he has failed to wield power he has to cross frontiers past the Mediterranean to reinforce his 2017 ambitions. ukiangalia IEBC has outwitted his tactics ikambidi amelipa vyombo vya dola kutoa kanda ya uizi was kura. politics is a dirty game. my suggestion was ikiwa vote vimeshindwa aombe Uhuru kazi kama vile baba yake alivyofanya serikali ya Kenyatta ndio historia ijirudie.

Kenya's envoy to US on the spot over Raila ‘snub'

• Boston based Kennedy Wambo said by staying away; Ms Kamau had set a bad precedent. "As a civil servant, she should know better than snub an event because of petty politics," he said via twitter.
• During the Boston Marathon which was held a day after the Dinner, Kenya's Rita Jeptoo won the women's race while Wilson Chebet and Frankline Chepkwony were second and third respectively in the men's race won by American Meb Keflezighi.

A section of Kenyans in the US has reacted angrily to media reports that acting Kenya's ambassador to the US boycotted a premium Kenyan event in Boston, Massachusetts, upon learning that former Prime Minister Raila Odinga was in attendance.

The Sunday Nation reported that Ms Jean Kamau, who was expected at the event dubbed "Diner with the Champions" accompanied by visiting Cabinet Secretary for Sports, Culture and Arts, Hassan Wario, reportedly stayed away because of the presence of the ODM leader.

Mr Odinga had joined the Kenyans in honour of compatriots who were participating in the prestigious Boston Marathon.

And soon after the story was published, many Kenyans took to the social media to vilify the envoy saying she not only embarrassed the Cord leader but the athletes as well. Others termed the action "uncalled for, archaic and disrespectful."

Boston based Kennedy Wambo said by staying away; Ms Kamau had set a bad precedent. "As a civil servant, she should know better than snub an event because of petty politics," he said via twitter.

"These officials seem to be still smarting from the Nyayo era mentality when you either were of certain political inclination (sic) or no one had time for you," said Martin Magesha of Tampa, Florida.

Some used other online fora to express their disappointment. "The ambassador owes Kenyans an apology", a reader who goes by pseudo name ‘Suluhisho' said in a posting on Mwakilishi.com, a Diaspora online publication.

"Snubbing the event is despicable and those supporting the behaviour should know it is counterproductive and does not advance the cause of national reconciliation and healing at all," said John Mwangi in a Facebook posting.

But Arizona based John Kamau felt that the barbs thrown at the envoy are misdirected. "Kenyans should blame Mr Odinga's supporters for rushing to the media to create the impression that their party leader was under siege," he told the Nation by phone. "They are trying to create a storm in a tea cup. The ambassador stayed away to avoid unnecessary theatrics," he added.

Mr Osaak Olumullah from Ohio wondered whether those castigating the envoy had all the facts on what transpired. "Did Mr. Odinga's office put the Embassy in the know about what was going to transpire? Was the politician gracing the event as a private citizen?" he wondered in a post on nation.co.ke.

Efforts to reach Ms Kamau for comment were fruitless as an embassy staff told the Nation that she was on leave and out of the country.

Two weeks ago, Mr Odinga expressed concern that the Charge de Affairs had not accorded him the courtesy he deserves. "Unlike my colleague from Tanzania who has been moving around with an official from the Tanzanian Embassy in Washington, the Kenyan Mission has largely ignored me," he told an NTV reporter in Atlanta during an interview.

During the Boston Marathon which was held a day after the Dinner, Kenya's Rita Jeptoo won the women's race while Wilson Chebet and Frankline Chepkwony were second and third respectively in the men's race won by American Meb Keflezighi.

The "Dinner with Champions" is the brain child of former Kenya's ambassador to the US , Elkanah Odembo, who styled himself as a true champion and supporter of Kenya's international sportsmen and women. It has become one of the biggest events among Kenyans living in the US whilst acting as a morale booster to the runners.

The latest development is likely to rekindle debate on the former Prime Minister's 3-month US tour which has raised eyebrows in some quarters, becoming a subject for debate both in the media and the Kenyan parliament.

hii ya kujaribu ku embarrass mtu ndiyo uonekane kama njia moja ya kupata following is loosing its appeal. don't you think hata wenye blogs maxence wanachoka na mambo haya yako. I have been monitoring you have continuously been doing that to Kabaridi for the past three years not understanding the phase Kenya is in.

you will not do that to me here and watch. there are several places where you can write your politics with those that you wish to discuss with. don't think if you have a special position somewhere that you are serving Kenya more. itajengwa na kuendelea whether we are here today and gone tommorow. the same judgement you are using will be mete to you. tutaendelea kitumia upanga au msumeno kujadiliana.

wakati umefika wa demokrasia na si hatia yeyote anaruhusiwa to speak their mind openly. sasa wewe uko na boldness mpaka kufananisha mtu kama mtoto. pengine you think you are more important than others who would like to participate in the forum. practically your behaviour is unbecoming which puts to doubt the sense of maturity you are trying to sell

nitakupa ushauri hiyo strategy yako is loosing its appeal tafuta nyingine. inakuwa kama rekodi boring za zamani

hawa jamaa wamejaa chuki na ukabila sana....ebu angalia Kenya inavyoangamia kila kukicha,ugaidi ,rushwa na ufisadi wao badala waungane wamekalia kukesha kumshambulia mtu mmoja.....badala ya kuwa proud of ODINGA wao ndio wamekazana kumponda,so pathetic in deed....yaani utazania wamelaaniwa kwa chuki na wivu...cha kushangaza wote wenye chuki kwa Hon odinga ni makabila mawili tu na ndio yanayo ongoza kwa rushwa na ufisadi..

cheki ile thread watu wanatajana na jutambulishana "wewe ni mkikuyu" nk . hili ni janga la mtu binsfi. sema kama wakenya watakubali kutokua ethnically conscious/minded. kama ufisadi ilivyokua institutionalized kenya ndivyo ukabila ilivyo. imekua common way of life..mpaka sasa utagundua bado angloleasing unatajwa kwa vyombo vya dola lakini kuapprehend wanaoshukiwa si jambo la msingi kwa wanaodai kupigana na ufisadi. institutionalization ya vices hizi inafanya mambo haya kua magumu. especially those tribes that feel they are politically correct. dont give us the idea that joblesslessness and tribbalism are related

pia katika sekta zingine sio ajabu mtu kutaka kujua mahusiano ya mwingine. yaani nyumbani ni wapi unahusiana na nani ndio mtu muendeshe shughuli pamoja

isipokua kila mmoja wetu abebe msalaba na kuangamiza ukabila. juhudi zote zitaambulia patupu. sio sahihi kusema jamaa fulani ni mkabila na wengine nimegundua they have no arguments when it comes to national issues, yao ni kutaja ukabila ukabila.

ukiangalia social media za mataifa yanayosaambaratika kama syria utapata chuki ya aina hii ikiwa kawaida. jamiifirums must change how they operate. you have put a mod who also engages watu wa forum na matusi.

unahaki ya kumsifu nyerere lakini wakati huo maendeleo ilikua duni AM. ndio ikawa rahisi kwake kupeleka watanzania sehemu tofautitofauti. lakini wakati huu mambo yamebadilika it will not be possible for any other person kufanya jambo hilo tena. ukabila na ubaguzi wa watu hasa wasiojieweza kama walio na kasoro ya maumbile kama albino ni ishara ya societies ambazo hazina UUNGU! tumepotoka na kila mtu anapaswa kuililia neema kutoka kwa maulana.

dont talk about kinifunza morals ukijihisi kua mtu ana utoto ni vizuri kua na busara na kuacha majadiliano. usijaribu kunionyesha makeke au you are an overprized asset. awe yeyote -------- tajiri fukara safari ni moja na mwisho ya yote ni sanduku na kifo tu.
pili usijipatie mzigo kama mtanzania kufikiri unaijali masuala ya tz kuliko wengine. Uwe au haupo italindwa tu na yeyote awe jeshi askari au mtu wa kawaida. Ikija kuishi kwa staha na jirani vilevile utasema ujiangalie mwenyewe kabla ya kudhihaki wenziwe hayo ndio nitakuachia
