Jaramogi Oginga Odinga locked out of Sheria House where he had gone to present papers for registration of Ford Party in March 1991 [Courtesy]The grand-master of opposition politics Jaramogi Oginga Odinga saw it all in his lifetime. At one time, his children were denied baptism by the church after he differed with those in authority. Jaramogi fought for the country’s liberation from colonialism, only to lose his freedom and power when his motherland was ultimately free. He had just left his home in Bondo, but the police who were in 10 Land Rovers instructed him to turn back as they wanted to search his home. Jaramogi the patriot was livid and even took Saitoti to court for defamation.
