Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) leader and Siaya Senator Oburu Oginga Odinga has addressed rumors about his health following a recent hospital visit. In a statement on his X account, Oburu reassured Kenyans that he is "very well" and dismissed concerns about his wellbeing. He had only visited the hospital for a general check-up and had since returned home.
The Senator emphasized that being sick is a normal part of human life and urged the public not to be alarmed by his hospital visit. Oburu stated that if he were ever seriously ill, he would personally communicate with Kenyans, highlighting his transparency. This came after previous hospitalizations, including a successful knee operation in November 2022 and an admission to Nairobi Hospital in August 2026.
Despite these health concerns, Oburu has continued with his political activities and public engagements.
