Today, we join Kenyans in remembering the late Rt. Hon. Raila Amolo Odinga, one year after his passing.
Raila shared a special connection with Germany, having studied German in Leipzig and mechanical engineering in Magdeburg.
Reflecting on their last meeting in 2024, Ambassador Sebastian Groth recalls speaking German with Raila for much of their conversation, reminiscing about old times and discussing politics. He remembers learning a great deal from Raila about Kenya, Kenyan politics and African history. A Pan-African visionary, Raila leaves behind a lasting legacy in Kenya and beyond.
One year on, we honour his memory and extend our heartfelt thoughts to all Kenyans remembering his life and legacy🕊️
