Who was the man who shaped Kenyan politics? BBC Africa

Raila Odinga was one of Kenya's most influential and enduring political figures despite five unsuccessful presidential bids. For years, the firebrand politician emerged as a staunch campaigner and defender of multi-party democracy - adored by near-fanatical supporters and vilified by a threatened political elite. Fondly known as "Baba", meaning father, the veteran opposition leader died on Wednesday morning at the age of 80 in India, where he had been receiving treatment for an undisclosed illness. His death not only marks the end of an era for a towering pan-Africanist, but also leaves a significant void in Kenya's opposition as the country heads towards the 2027 elections.
