Raila Odinga's trusted helper and guard, George Oduor, heads to his final rest on Friday, April 11, 2025. The Orange Democratic Movement shared Thursday that friends can say goodbye at his Ndori home close to Bondo. Anyone wanting to share kind words can sign special books at two places - the party office on Loyiangalani Drive in Lavington or at the Jaramogi Oginga Odinga Foundation on Matumbato Road in Upper Hill, Nairobi.
George died Wednesday during medical care at a Nairobi hospital. Raila spoke warmly of his loyal friend who stood by both him and his dad for decades. He called George a steady presence through hard times, noting his calm and professional work style. Raila expressed deep sadness about losing someone who meant much to him through many struggles.
The connection between George and the Odinga family reaches back to the late 1980s when he first worked for Raila's father, Jaramogi. After the elder Odinga passed away in 1994, George moved to Raila's security team. Their bond lasted through many political storms across Kenya. Raila sent heartfelt sympathy from himself, his wife Mama Ida, and everyone in the Jaramogi clan.
Carol George lost her husband, but she heard kind words from many important people. Several political figures linked to ODM reached out with messages saying George acted as both friend and brother in Kenya's fight for freedom. These leaders shared their pain with the family during this tough time. Many described how George helped them through difficult periods in their careers and personal lives.
