Unbeknown to Kenyans, Raila Odinga never completed his primary and Secondary education. He has never sat for any examination papers and his education before going to a Germany Wielding School is opaque.
This is the reason why he doesn't know the value and importance of examinations for Kenyan children, which he is prepared to jeopardize because of his political greed.
There are unconfirmed rumors that Odinga attended Kisumu Union Primary School, Maranda Primary and Maranda High School where it's alleged that he stayed until 1962, before preceding to Herder Institut, a part of the University of Leipzig in East Germany. It's claimed that from there, he received a scholarship in 1965 that sent him to the Technical School, Magdeburg.
However, no records exist in the said schools to corroborate this information. Intimate associates whisper that he is only able to produce a certificate in higher education which he studied at Herder Institute.
Very reliable sources reveal that Odinga only reached Standard six. His father, Jaramogi wanted him to go to Maseno school, but he failed to attain the high marks needed to join the prestigious school. He was compelled to repeat several times and then threw in the towels.
At the age of 15, Raila crossed the border to Tanzania where the then Tanzanian President Mwalimu Nyerere arranged for his scholarship to Herder Institut, a technical school where he took a Welding course. The Herder Institut, was then an equivalent of a local polytechnic in East Germany. He returned to Kenya in 1970 and claimed to possess a Master Degree in Mechanical Engineering. He has however failed to publicly call himself an engineer.
Upon his return, he was employed at the University of Nairobi as a mechanical technician. He never lectured and his movements were restricted in the laboratories. Raila initially spread rumors that he had done Nuclear Engineering in East Germany, before changing the narrative to Mechanical Engineering to justify establishment of his company, the East African Spectre.
In the 60s and 70s, the country had 7-4-2-3 education system. Before one could proceed to any University in Kenya or abroad, it was mandatory for him to have satisfactorily passed his primary level, Ordinary Secondary level and Advanced High school level.
Raila Odinga's primary and secondary education background has never been known. Let him table his East African Certificate of Primary Education (EACPE), East African Certificate of Education examination (EACE) and East African Advanced Certificate of Education (EAACE) certificates before he proceeded to East Germany's Herder Technical Institute. Kenyans could have been duped by Raila and his university documents need to be scrutinized and investigated.
