Oburu Oginga Discharged From Nairobi Hospital

ODM leader Oburu Oginga has reportedly left Nairobi Hospital after two weeks, following remarks defending his medical privacy and confirming he was recovering.

NAIROBI, Kenya – Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) leader Oburu Oginga has been discharged from Nairobi Hospital after a two-week stay that drew public attention to his health and kept the veteran politician away from the political scene.

The Siaya Senator reportedly left the facility on October 19, having been admitted on October 4. His discharge comes days after he publicly challenged speculation about his condition, insisting that being unwell did not oblige him to disclose his medical details.

Oburu’s hospitalisation attracted growing attention as his absence coincided with a significant period for ODM, which is navigating its future following the death of former Prime Minister Raila Odinga.

The party leader addressed the speculation on October 15, when he marked his 83rd birthday in hospital. The date also marked the first anniversary of Raila’s death.
