The National Super Alliance (Nasa) leader left Nairobi for Harare, the capital of the southern African country, at 1pm. By PATRICK LANG'ATMore by this AuthorOpposition leader Raila Odinga on Monday afternoon left the country for Zimbabwe. Mr Odinga and Mr Tsvangirai first met in 1993 when Mr Odinga led an International Republican Institute team to train political parties and civil society in Zimbabwe for the multi-party elections that were approaching then. Mr Tsvangirai was also present when Mr Odinga was named ODM presidential elections flag-bearer in December 2012. His death, Mr Odinga said, leaves a gap in a country that still needs strong and vigilant forces of change to return to the path of democracy and freedom.
