Raila Hospitalized


Prime Minister Raila Odinga is recuperating at the Nairobi hospital after undergoing surgery on the left side of his head last night to ease what doctors described as a build up of pressure. Raila reportedly checked himself in the hospital on Monday evening feeling exhausted as well as having a severe headache which prompted the doctors to admit him and conduct the operation at night. According to neurosurgeon doctor Oluoch Olunya who performed the surgery, the exercise had been successful and that the prime minister is now under bed rest and as Chris Thairu reports, there was anxiety at the hospital throughout the day as word spread on the premier's hospitalisation.
