Oburu Odinga calls for investigations into CDF Ogolla's death

In April, General Francis Ogolla died in a plane crash at the Kaben area in Elgeyo-Marakwet county alongside nine other KDF officials.

The late CDF's son, Joel Rabuku, maintained that his father had prepared them for his death, disputing claims that he was killed.

He stated that his late father had a good working relationship with President William Ruto, his deputy, Rigathi Gachagua, and Defence CS Aden Duale.

Senator Oburu strongly disagreed with Rabuku, urging him to allow room for investigations, as the government had promised.
