Ida Odinga, the widow of former Kenyan Prime Minister Raila Odinga, publicly sought forgiveness for her late husband from anyone he may have offended. Speaking Thursday at their Opoda Farm residence in Bondo during a visit by Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka, she acknowledged insensitive comments about Raila following his October 15 death in India. She emphasized his forgiving nature and urged political figures to advance his unity vision. Odinga also expressed profound gratitude for Musyoka's delivery of one hundred cattle, calling his actions louder than words.

The former first lady advised youth against political violence and viewing opponents as enemies. She stressed democracy matters more than party divisions despite her career as an educator. Musyoka presented Raila Odinga Junior with a bow, arrow, and shield in Kenyan flag colors, symbolizing guardianship of the homestead. Ida Odinga affirmed her husband's positive legacy and belief that he now rests peacefully after decades of public service. She highlighted Musyoka's cross-community delegation as proof of shared national values.
