Raila Makongeni

Prime Minister, Raila Odinga appeared to climb down from the tough stance he had earlier taken over President Kibaki's nomination of candidates to critical judicial offices. Speaking at a public rally in Makadara , Raila appeared to blame the president's handlers for the controversial nominations. The Prime Minister however maintained that unless there were proper consultations, the president's list of nominees would not stand. The Prime Minister on Saturday dismissed the list as null and void and declared a constitutional crisis. And as Willis Raburu reports, the prime minister and his allies say they will use all means necessary to fight the nominations.

He is with the people ..Kenya has changed..We no longer live in the closed door policy..I rather a leader who cries foul to the people than the one who schemes in the balconies of power..Even the secretive president and his Mellon crony will have to answer to the people of kenya..all 42 tribes..He wasn't elected to sit in his chambers and bark ignorance..Kenyans are watching lest he forgets

Raila, that forceful language used by your allies scare me.

Perhaps you ought to stay home and pay attention to matters that require your input as Prime Minister.

Running off to the press each time you don’t get your way makes you look like a cry baby.

Next time to head back to Ivory Coast try multi tasking. Ever heard of Video Conferencing? Try WebEX for God’s sake.
