[Denish Ochieng, Standard]Opposition leader Raila Odinga has pledged there will be no ethnic clashes during the election cycle and beyond as the August 9 poll approaches. “We cannot allow people to incite the public into ethnic clashes due to the use of words like Madoadoa. We have seen what happened during previous ethnic clashes in 1992, 1997, 2008. It will not happen, it will not happen under Uhuru’s watch, it will not happen under Baba’s watch,” said Raila.
