One of Kenya's most revered politicians, opposition leader and former Prime Minister Raila Odinga, will be buried TODAY at his farm in Bondo, in western Kenya. Odinga, who died at a hospital in India aged 80 on Wednesday, never made it to Kenya's presidency - failing five times. The former political prisoner was a major figure for decades in Kenyan politics and many Kenyans believe he was cheated of the presidency by electoral fraud. Tens of thousands of people - many carrying branches as a traditional symbol of grief and wearing T-shirts printed with his image - wept and sang at Friday's service at Nyayo National Stadium in the capital Nairobi, where they paid their final respects. Two people were killed and more than 160 others were injured in a stampede at the stadium. Bongiwe Spoke to Zubeidah Kananu, President of Kenya Editors Guild from Nairobi.
