People came out in large numbers to greet him during his visits. As part of the celebrations, he danced with locals to traditional music. The President checked on housing projects and opened new infrastructure with Deputy President Kindiki by his side. Sad news hit former Prime Minister Raila Odinga when his longtime bodyguard, George Oduor, passed away on Thursday evening. Oduor died at a hospital in Nairobi. Many leaders from different political parties sent messages of comfort. Raila spoke highly of Oduor, praising his alertness and excellent work. He expressed how much he would miss the man who had protected him for many years. Nurses hired under the Universal Health Coverage program held a peaceful protest outside Parliament on Monday. These health workers came from different parts of the country to make their voices heard. They asked the government to give them permanent jobs with pension benefits. The demonstration happened as they sought better working terms. The medical staff wanted to secure their future through stable employment. Speaker Moses Wetang'ula unexpectedly met with former Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo. They talked about bringing peace to East Africa, focusing mainly on two countries: Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo. Their discussion centered on helping Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo resolve their issues. Obasanjo is one of three respected African leaders working on this peace process. The meeting aimed to find ways to end the conflict between these neighboring nations. [/QUOTE]
