𝐑𝐀𝐈𝐋𝐀 𝐀𝐌𝐎𝐋𝐎 𝐎𝐃𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐀 🕊️ The East African Community (EAC) Secretariat conveys its heartfelt condolences and deepest sympathies to the Government and people of the Republic of Kenya on the passing of the former Prime Minister, Rt. Hon. Raila Amolo Odinga. Rt. Hon. Odinga was a towering Pan-African statesman, a courageous reformer and a relentless voice for freedom, democracy and social justice. He was an affable, charismatic and an enigma central to Kenya’s politics. His political life embodied resilience, conviction and sacrifice in pursuit of a fairer and more united Kenya. A steadfast believer in regional cooperation and Pan-African ideals, Rt. Hon. Odinga championed the cause of integration, infrastructure and collective development. He was a consistent advocate for equality and inclusion and a champion for women’s representation. His conviction that Africa’s strength lies in its unity resonated deeply with the EAC’s vision of a peaceful, prosperous and people-centred region. His passing marks the loss of a leader of rare foresight and principle. One whose courage, intellect and devotion to the common good inspired millions and elevated Africa’s discourse on governance, equity and development. His legacy will remain a guiding light for generations committed to building a better, more united region and continent. On behalf of the East African Community and on my own behalf, I extend sincere condolences to his family, friends and to the people and Government of the Republic of Kenya during this time of great sorrow.
