Lawyer Ahmednasir Abdullahi warns Silas Jakakimba, a former aide to ODM leader Raila Odinga, not to run for the Suba North parliamentary seat in 2027.
On Sunday, May 5, Jakakimba hosted a delegation from the Kakiimba community, which officially endorsed his parliamentary ambition to unseat MP Millie Odhiambo. Jakakimba thanked the elders for giving him the go-ahead to seek votes across the constituency.
“My Kodondo Residence played host to my Parents, Elders, kids and youths from the Kakiimba Community as they committed my aspirations to The Lord. This solemn Prayer Session also authorised and afforded me the express authority and Blessings to move, visit and consult in a similar fashion – Every clan and Community on Mfangano Island, Rusinga Island, Kasgunga, Gembe and Lambwe as we engage all Suba North residents on my agenda geared towards taking Suba North to the next level,” Jakakimba said.
In response to the endorsement, Ahmednasir suggested that Jakakiba would face defeat against Odhiambo. According to Ahmednasir, the former aide to the former prime minister would unnecessarily suffer if he tries to unseat Odhiambo, whom he described as experienced.
“Leave alone Suba North. Please try somewhere else…Hon Millie Grace Akoth Odhiambo ni chuma (y 16). You will get hurt unnecessarily!” he said
Wakili…wachana Suba North. Please try somewhere else…Hon Millie Grace Akoth Odhiambo NI CHUMA (Y 16). You will get hurt unnecessarily! https://t.co/S9LkhzUuRt
