Kenya’s political underworld is on fire—and we have the receipts.
According to a highly placed source with direct knowledge of the talks, ODM boss Raila Odinga has held THREE closed-door meetings in the past 90 days with none other than former President Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta and Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka.
The meetings, reportedly staged in upscale Nairobi locations, were deliberately kept under wraps—phones left outside, only trusted aides in the vicinity. So, what exactly is cooking in these clandestine sessions?
For months, Raila has been walking a tightrope—cooperating with President William Ruto under the so-called broad-based government deal, while staying strangely non-committal on his own 2027 ambitions.
Insiders whisper that the former Prime Minister is hedging his bets:
✔ Plan A: Secure a guaranteed stake in Ruto’s regime through the 10-point MoU.
✔ Plan B: If the handshake honeymoon ends in betrayal, fall back on a new super alliance with Uhuru and Kalonzo.
And let’s not kid ourselves—Raila has a history of pulling off last-minute political earthquakes. Remember 2002 NARC, 2008 Grand Coalition, 2018 handshake? Same script, different players.
These revelations are shaking the United Opposition to its core. Wiper has been preaching zero cooperation with Ruto, yet here is Kalonzo allegedly meeting behind closed doors with Raila and Uhuru.
Meanwhile, Jubilee (Uhuru’s party) and ODM have been quietly seconding their technocrats to Ruto’s administration, a move that opposition diehards see as a dangerous softening toward State House.
The question everyone’s asking:
Is this the beginning of the end for Azimio as we know it?
Just weeks ago, President Ruto and Uhuru Kenyatta shocked the nation with their cordial reunion at State House during an EAC–SADC summit on DRC. These two men fought bitterly in 2022—but politics makes strange bedfellows.
Add Raila to this mix, and you’re staring at the possibility of a 2027 political Frankenstein—a realignment so big it could bulldoze the current order.
What’s Really Cooking?
From what we’ve pieced together, these meetings are NOT about tea and biscuits. The agenda, according to our source, revolves around:
Power-sharing formulas if the broad-based experiment collapses.
A roadmap to neutralize Ruto’s dominance in Mt. Kenya and Eastern Kenya.
Positioning for international backing, leveraging Raila’s AU connections and Uhuru’s diplomatic networks.
The Hard Truth: Where Is Raila’s Loyalty?
This is where the moral question bites: What does Raila really stand for anymore?
Is he the fearless opposition bulldog he sold to millions—or just a chameleon, willing to strike deals with anyone as long as power is on the table?
Every time Kenyans rally behind him for a cause—whether electoral justice in 2017 or economic reforms in 2023—he ends up cutting backroom deals with the very forces he vowed to fight. For a man who once declared “No reforms, no elections!”, today’s Raila looks less like a revolutionary and more like a career survivor in Kenya’s power bazaar.
If these secret talks signal yet another handshake-style maneuver, then ordinary Kenyans should brace for disappointment: in Raila’s politics, loyalty is negotiable—and morality is optional.
If Raila, Uhuru, and Kalonzo strike a formal deal, Kenya’s 2027 election map will be ripped to shreds. This isn’t just about coalition arithmetic—it’s about who really controls the levers of power in the next decade.
One thing is certain: the ground beneath Kenyan politics is shifting, and when it settles, some big names will be out in the cold.
