Lengo Karissa Mudzomba, the man who stunned Kenyans in 2014 by caning the late Raila Odinga during a rally in Kinango, Kwale County, has finally broken his silence, over a decade later.

“Raila is no longer with us, but I continue to seek forgiveness from him, his family, and the people of Kenya.

My actions were wrong, and they have haunted me for many years,” Karissa stated, visibly emotional. “I acted out of ignorance and under peer pressure. It was never my intention to cause him harm.”
