After Prime minister Raila Odinga asked his people from the Luo community to change their stand and start cicumcising,now Kenya’s Assistant Minister of Finance Mr Oburu Oginga and his Education Counterpart Ayiecho Olweny have added weight to the premiers message by saying they would be circumcised next week to bolster the campaign.
We are seeing what has been lacking most in Kenya," Leaders leading from the front" For Oburu Odinga Who is the elder brother of the Prime minister to accept the cut and decide to go for it in a public announcement,is a big step towards diffusing the beliefs that the leaders are in a quest to wrong their people as perceived earlier since they are participants in the drive.
For Prof Aliecho Olweny (Muhoroni, Narc) who had earlier said that the increase of ARVs without prioritising counselling would not achieve much to the HIV/Aids victims,is a good example from many leaders fronting the move in the region.
These two aasistant ministers are a good example since they have proved that their struggles to introduce circumcision in the Luo community is actually in good faith.
Bravo Oburu,Odinga,Bravo Prof Aliecho Olweny.
