Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Siaya Senator Oburu Odinga has successfully undergone knee surgery in India. The Senator, who is a brother of ODM leader Raila Odinga, was operated on Saturday. Speaking to India’s TV5 News channel, the Senator noted he is progressing well.<\/p>\n

“Since I came, I have received the best treatment. I have been treated in Kenyan hospital before but I find treatment here in India to be good and also cheap,” the Senator. The Senator went on to explain that many Kenyans, including him, are opting for India for treatment because it is cheap.<\/p>\n

“It is not because Kenya could not treat my knee. It is because if I could treat my knee in Kenya, it could have cost me three times more than what it has cost me in India,” he said.<\/p>\n

The Senator is now upbeat that his recovery journey is on the right path. He said he is looking forward to bouncing back to his favourite sporting activity as soon as possible.<\/p>\n

“I feel great. I am a golfer. I hope that when I go back to my country Kenya, I will go back to the golf field and start again to kick the ball.”<\/p>\n
