At the time of his treatment, Raila was accompanied by his long-time bodyguard Maurice Ogeta who was captured shedding tears uncontrollably upon learning that his boss was no more.

In the first interviews with local televisions Ogeta has revealed that the last video where Raila was seen walking in white robes was not taken in India as was alleged but in Dubai.
“The clip that was trending online of me walking behind Baba, Raila Amollo Odinga, while he was in a gown is an old video of us in Dubai after his first surgery, not in India,” he revealed
Ogeta also shared the last moments before he learnt that Raila was gone citing that the former Prime Minister’s doctor was not telling him the truth.
“Before receiving the news that Baba was gone, prayer items and candles were already being prepared,” Ogeta recalled
Continuing, “I asked Dr Olunya what was happening, and he reassured me that it was a mission hospital where they pray for patients as they treat them. However, I was getting different signs that all was not well,”
And in a more personal confession, Ogeta claims that sometimes back during demonstrations in Kenya, he lost Sh14 million in a car.
“I lost Sh14.7 million when I was abducted; it was in the car, and they took it. It took me 10 years back because those were my savings,” he shared

“Interview was so painful that it could not be concluded! With time the truth shall be revealed!! Kapasua mbarika,” Harry Andere responded
“So if we give him another year to live then next year October he will tell us whether they went to India or not,” Another Kenyan Hann Owino wrote
