Raila Odinga feels deep sadness after losing George Oduur, who served faithfully as his bodyguard and aide for many years. George became like family to both Raila and his father, Jaramogi Oginga Odinga. Raila remembers George as someone he could always count on - a professional who stayed alert yet calm during his duties.
The two shared countless experiences since the late 1980s. They faced both hard times and victories as a team. George stayed by Raila's side through difficult periods, showing complete loyalty. His death at a city hospital on Wednesday left Raila heartbroken, along with many friends who already miss him greatly.
Raila expressed sympathy to George's wife Carol and everyone else affected by this loss. He shared that both he and his wife Ida, plus the entire Jaramogi family, feel terrible about George's passing. Raila prayed for George's soul to rest peacefully forever after his death.
George first worked for Raila's father back in the late 1980s. After Jaramogi died in 1994, George joined Raila's security team. He had special training as a police reservist and learned VIP protection skills both in Kenya and other countries. George became the most recognized member of Raila's security detail despite keeping his personal life private. Many political allies have sent messages supporting Raila and George's family during this difficult time.
