@plugtvke: A leadership contest appears to be emerging within the Linda Mwananchi brigade following Sunday’s rally at Jacaranda Grounds. Embakasi East MP Babu Owino has long positioned himself as a potential successor to the late Raila Odinga, popularising the message “Baada ya Baba ni Babu.” But at Jacaranda, the crowd appeared to send a different message. When the MC asked where Raila’s political spirit had rested, the crowd rejected names including Oburu Odinga and Gladys Wanga. When the MC finally asked where the spirit had rested, the crowd loudly chanted “Sifuna.” The MC then attempted to shift the crowd toward Babu Owino, insisting that Raila’s mantle belonged with Babu. The moment has raised fresh questions over the battle to inherit Raila Odinga’s political influence, with Edwin Sifuna and Babu Owino emerging as prominent names in the conversation.
