'Baba', 'Tinga', ...: Raila Odinga's honorary nicknames

[edit]

Raila Odinga is much venerated by his followers. This veneration finds its expression in the many honorary nicknames given to him (to name but a few):

- "Baba" (Swahili for "father") - "Tinga" (Swahili for "tractor") - "Agwambo" (Dholuo for "mystery" or "the unpredictable")

IMHO, this is worth mentioning. If you agree, could you please incorporate it into the article? MFX (talk) 12:02, 20 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
