The video, featuring a Murang’a woman criticizing government appointments, reportedly caught Raila’s attention so many times that he shared it with Salah over 30 different occasions.
Speaking to reporters while delivering a KSh 1 million Christmas donation from President William Ruto to members of Bunge La Mwananchi at Jacaranda Grounds, Salah said the video underscored a recurring concern for Raila: the perception of fairness in government representation.
The Murang’a woman reportedly questioned Ruto’s decision to appoint Luos to key positions, including the Treasury Cabinet Secretary role.
He added that Raila believed his community had greater access to opportunities under the current administration than in past governments.
The donation delivery, which took place on Monday, December 22, was a gesture of goodwill aimed at fostering unity and compassion during the festive season.

Salah conveyed greetings on behalf of ODM leader Oburu Odinga and thanked Ruto for supporting citizen-led initiatives.
Commentator Shadrack Omondi Orwa, popularly known as Omosh One Hour, hailed the donation as a recognition of grassroots movements and community-led advocacy. He stressed that the contribution went beyond financial support.
“It is about acknowledging organized citizen voices that drive inclusion, dignity, and development. This is recognition for the hustler spirit that powers Kenya’s informal sector,” Omosh noted.
Salah also used the occasion to urge members of ODM to support the broad-based government partnership between ODM and Ruto’s United Democratic Alliance (UDA).
He reminded members that Raila had, during his final days, instructed his supporters to back the government until 2027, emphasizing unity and cooperation.
According to Salah, the long-term goal for communities in Western Kenya and Nyanza is to secure higher representation in government while nurturing political leadership capable of contending for the presidency in 2032.
He encouraged residents to acquire national IDs and register as voters, highlighting that civic participation is key to future progress.
“Raila always believed that responsible engagement with government creates opportunities for development. Supporting Ruto’s second term is not about politics alone; it is about fulfilling a vision Raila had for our communities,” Salah said.
The revelation about the Murang’a woman’s video has sparked widespread discussion online, with many Kenyans noting Raila’s attention to public opinion and minority voices, even as he maintained a high-profile political career.
In a related development, thousands of residents from Kapseret sub-county attended MP Oscar Sudi’s Christmas food distribution event, reflecting the growing popularity of citizen-driven initiatives.
Drone footage captured the massive turnout, which grew from about 5,000 beneficiaries the previous year to nearly 12,000 this season.
During the event, Sudi emphasized unity, called for an end to tribalism, and rallied support for Ruto’s 2027 re-election bid.
