Court Dismisses Petition to Stop Raila Odinga's Burial - October 2025
A Kenyan court has rejected and dismissed a petition that aimed to halt the burial of former Prime Minister Raila Odinga. The burial is scheduled for Sunday, October 19, 2025. The petitioner had argued that a quick burial violated Luo customs and traditions for a leader of his stature. Raila will be laid to rest in Bondo, Siaya County. His burial is planned to combine Anglican Church traditions with significant Luo cultural rituals to honour his passage to the ancestral world.
