Despite Raila calling on Kenyans to test for Covid-19, the country is currently experiencing a shortage in testing reagents which has hindered the mass testing drive.
The country has also begun experiencing a shortage in testing materials with a backlog of over 5,000 samples tested after the state ran out of reagents.
Back in March, there were concerns after rumours circulated that Raila came into contact with Kilifi Deputy Governor Gideon Saburi who reportedly tested positive for Covid-19.
Raila, however, moved to deny the rumours clarifying that he only met Mombasa Deputy Governor William Kingi in his trip to Mombasa.
