AfricaPress-Kenya:<\/strong> Raila Odinga\u2019s youngest child, Winnie Odinga, has distanced herself from the dynasty tag often slapped on her father by his political challengers.<\/p>\n

Speaking on Spice FM on Thursday, April 8 Winnie said her life growing up was characterised by challenges, just like in any other Kenyan family, and, therefore, the \u201cdynasty\u201d reference used on her was a \u201cmisplaced perception\u201d.<\/p>\n

Winnie spoke to the Standard Group-owned radio station during the\u00a0Situation Room morning breakfast show.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t believe we can refer to Jaramogi Oginga Odinga as a dynasty yet he was detained in some of the worst places in Kenya, for instance Hola Camp. My father, Raila Odinga, was also detained for eight years,\u201d said Winnie, responding to a caller, who sought her opinion on the dynasty tag.<\/p>\n

\u201cMaybe she (caller) does not know the life I lived while growing up. I would wake up to a sight of policemen surrounding our house while gun-toting,\u201d said Winnie.<\/p>\n

The 31-year-old spoke to Situation Room hosts Eric Latiff, Charles Muga and Ndu Okoh.<\/p>\n

In Kenya\u2019s recent political happenings, ODM leader Raila Odinga found himself being forced to defend his family against the dynasty tag often slapped on him by pro-Deputy President William Ruto\u2019s allies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
