Roots party presidential candidate George Wajackoyah has endorsed Azimio La Umoja One Kenya Coalition Party rival Raila Odinga for presidency, with five days to the August 9 General Election.
Speaking to his fans in a nightclub, Wajackoyah stated that he supports Raila, the head of the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM), because he was one of the proponents of Kenya’s second liberation.
“Because of that, man (Raila). The man whose tears come out every day because of what happened to him in jail, including myself. I am here to join liberators. And the person I look at, the person who makes me stand here is none other Raila Odinga,” Wajackoya said.
Wajackoyah was warmly welcomed at Raila’s Migori backyard on Monday, July 25.
Wajackoyah attracted a sizable throng that was eager and ready to listen to him, which caused the town to come to a complete stop for more than an hour.
Even though Wajackoyah’s supporters filled the air with reggae music chants, Migori is seen of as an ODM stronghold.
