In a powerful display of solidarity and faith, women from the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) gathered today for a special prayer session, seeking divine intervention and guidance for their leader, Raila Odinga, as he pursues the position of Chairperson of the African Union (AU) Commission. The prayer meeting, held in Nairobi, was attended by prominent women leaders, activists, and members of the ODM party who shared a common message of support for Odinga's candidacy.
The ODM women, who have long viewed Raila Odinga as a champion for women’s empowerment and equality, expressed their unwavering belief in his ability to lead the African Union Commission with strength, wisdom, and justice. “Baba has always fought for the rights of women and marginalized communities,” said one of the attendees, a key ODM official. “His leadership has been a beacon of hope for us all, and we trust that he will bring the same commitment to the African continent as he has to Kenya.”
The gathering, which included powerful prayers and reflections, underscored Odinga’s enduring legacy as a symbol of resilience and justice. For decades, Raila Odinga has been at the forefront of advocating for democracy, equality, and the advancement of women's rights across Kenya and the African continent. His advocacy for inclusive governance has earned him a reputation as one of the region's most prominent political figures, particularly in championing issues close to women’s hearts.
"As a man who has fought for the rights of women in this country, Raila Odinga is the kind of leader we need at the AU Commission," said one speaker, reflecting the mood of the group. "His track record shows that he will continue to advocate for the empowerment of women across Africa, ensuring that we have a strong voice in the decision-making processes of the continent."
The prayer session not only sought divine favor for Odinga’s success but also celebrated his long-standing commitment to justice and social equity. Attendees prayed for victory, asking for wisdom and guidance as Odinga takes on the responsibility of leading the AU Commission, a role that holds the potential to elevate Africa’s influence on the global stage.
With his candidacy gaining momentum, Raila Odinga's bid for the AU Commission chair is seen as a key moment in his political journey, one that highlights his commitment to pan-African unity and leadership. As the women of ODM continue to stand by his side, their prayers are a reminder of his deep connection to the issues that matter most to Kenya’s women—and the broader African community.
As the political community eagerly awaits the outcome of the election, the ODM women remain hopeful, united in their belief that Raila Odinga’s vision for Africa will continue to reflect the values of justice, equality, and empowerment that have defined his career.
