Raila Odinga 'not afraid of sanctions' ahead of 'inauguration' Kenya’s opposition leader Raila Odinga says he is ‘not afraid of sanctions’ ahead of his ‘swearing-in ceremony’ as President scheduled for tomorrow. According to him although he has received calls and threats from different ambassadors and ‘friends abroad’ asking him not to go ahead with the inauguration, he will do it, even if it comes at the expense of travelling abroad. The leader of the opposition National Super Alliance (NASA) coalition was addressing his supporters in the Nyanza region. Odinga’s NASA insists they won the August 8, 2016, presidential election, which was nullified by the Supreme Court after NASA challenged the electoral commission’s announcement of Uhuru Kenyatta as the victor. Even though Uhuru Kenyatta, has been sworn in as president, NASA refuses to recognise his government and instead plans to run a parallel government with Odinga as the ‘people’s president’.
