The internet was almost breaking down with a photo of former Prime Minister and CORD leader Raila Odinga wearing a torn shoe as captured by The Standard.
On Sunday, Raila was in St John’s Everlasting Gospel Church in Imara Daima attending a function but was spotted wearing a torn shot with a nice suit.
And as Kenyans wondered and others trolled, Raila’s wife, Ida Odinga, has come out to explain why her husband wore a torn shoe.
Speaking to Nairobi News, Ida has said that Raila’s shoe got torn when he knocked a stone at the church where he was attending a function.
Mama Ida has wondered why people are making fun of the incident saying that she has all along dressed Raila and there is no way she would allow her husband to leave the house with a worn out shoe.
Mama Ida asked if anyone noticed the quality of the suit her husband wore that day and if it was supposed to be accompanied with a torn shoe.
She lamented that as a fashionista her husband was on the receiving end of insults because of an accident that happened on Sunday.
“I have dressed my husband all these years and he has always looked smart. Is there a day you’ve ever seen Raila badly dressed? That was just an accident. I am a fashionista and I know how to dress my husband.”
