Former Prime Minister Raila Odinga’s burial site has continued to attract visitors, nearly two weeks after his burial.

A high-level delegation has today paid homage to the revered statesman.

Former President of Ghana Nana Akufo-Addo, visited Odinga’s burial site and laid a wreath on the grave.

Akufo-Addo, who is in Kenya for the Democracy Union of Africa (DUA) forum, laid a wreath and hailed Odinga as “one of Africa’s great sons.”

“The man we are mourning is one of the great sons of Africa. His contribution to the growth of democracy in Kenya and Africa is one that can never be forgotten. I was privileged to have the opportunity to work with him,” Addo said.

He was accompanied by KANU Chairperson Gideon Moi, who described Odinga as “a true hero” and “a son of Africa.”
