Court has declined to issue an order to stop the burial of former Prime Minister Raila Odinga, which is set to happen on Sunday, October 19, 2025.
The ruling came after the man had moved to court to stop the quick burial of the stateman, arguing that it goes against Luo customs and traditions.
According to the court ruling, the petitioner did not demonstrate that the process undertaken was contrary to the wishes of the deceased to enable the court to act on the request for the conservatory orders. He also expressed his dissatisfaction with the urgency of the matter.
The former Prime Minister is set to be buried on Sunday, October 19, as per his wishes to be laid to rest 72 hours after his passing.
