Raila Odinga has unsuccessfully contested for the presidency five times and there is a rumour that he is keen to contest for the sixth time in 2027.

Manyora, who is also a seasoned political analyst, advised Raila Odinga to appoint other communities to senior leadership positions in ODM if he wants to win the 2027 Presidential election.
