Statement by Raila’s doctor on former prime minister’s health

ODM leader Raila Odinga will soon be able to address the country after undergoing rest and treatment, his doctor David Oluoch Olunya says.

In a statement to the media on Wednesday, March 10, Dr. Olunya said the former prime minister checked into Nairobi Hospital on Tuesday, March 9, and a check-up on Mr Odinga was conducted “successfully”.

“Raila Odinga walked in for routine medical tests at the Nairobi Hospital on March 9, 2021 after feeling some fatigue,” said Dr. Olunya, a consultant neurosurgeon.

“He had a rigorous (sic) campaign, and needed to have some check-up. This was carried out successfully. He is still undergoing some further investigations (sic) with a team of doctors and has been advised to take a rest.

“We are continuing to monitor his condition, and no doubt he will be able to address the country in due course. He is in good spirits.”
