Her sentiments seemingly caught quite a number unaware .
This is compounded by the fact also that they do not know how to confront her or answer back, being that she is Raila's daughter.
Many quarters believe Winnie Odinga was not only speaking for herself, but also sharing wishes of her mum Ida Odinga.
Ida has not made political pronouncements since her husband's death, but she definitely has a voice in ODM and the direction that the party is set to take going forward.
She has always been consulted in ODM matters, even when Raila Odinga was alive, same as Oburu Oginga and they definitely know a lot about the internal affairs.
Sources report that Ida Odinga is pulling the strings in the background to support her daughter Winnie Odinga and other influential leaders.
This is in relation to having the party go through an orderly transition.
Winnie had said that they need to go back to the people and ask what they want, before making decisions. That ODM was not born in boardrooms.
That in as much as she has not been public, she is reading the same book such as Winnie.
But does it mean they don't have faith in Oburu Oginga, or are there other leaders being targeted? Time will tell.
