Azimio la Umoja One Kenya Alliance Presidential candidate Raila Odinga has congratulated his running mate Martha Karua for what he described as a mastery of subject matters during the deputy presidential candidates debate.
Taking to his Twitter account, Raila praised Karua for her performance during Monday night’s debate where she faced off Kenya Kwanza’s deputy presidential candidate Rigathi Gachagua.
“Your poise, mastery of subject, and staying calm even when provoked were impressive. I congratulate my able deputy and team member Martha Karua,” Raila tweeted.
In her response, Karua tweeted, “thank you, my captain.”
Yesterday’s debate also featured the two other Deputy Presidential candidates. Before Karua and Rigathi faced off, Agano party’s Ruth Mucheru debated with Roots party’s Justina Syokau.
The debate was held at the Catholic University of Eastern Africa (CUEA) auditorium.
