ODM leader Raila Odinga says he draws his inspiration from former South African President Nelson Mandela's legacy. Raila, who is in South Africa on a week-long tour said on Wednesday he visited the Nelson Mandela Foundation in Johannesburg where he skimmed through the late freedom fighter and anti-apartheid hero's legacy. "I'd like to express my gratitude to the Nelson Mandela Foundation for hosting me this afternoon and guiding me through Madiba's legacy, which they have preserved," Raila said in a statement on Twitter. His spokesman Dennis Onyango said in a statement the ODM leader would, while in the country, hold a series of meetings in his capacity as the AU High Representative for Infrastructure Development in Africa. He has held talks with South African Minister for Tourism Lindiwe Sisula as well as African Union Development Agency (AUDA-NEPAD) chief executive Nardos Bekele.
