K24TV anchor Betty Kyallo boldly interrupted Raila Odinga's lunch date with Embakasi East MP Babu Owino and his wife Fridah Ongili for an interview segment for her weekend show.
In the interview segment, Upclose that aired on Friday, Betty walked in on Raila as he was having lunch with the youthful legislator at Serena Hotel in Nairobi.
Betty began by greeting the former Prime Minister with her news crews filming the polite intrusion, "Sorry to interrupt your lunch."
She continued, "He (Babu) told me that he was having lunch with you and in the good cheer of Labour Day we thought, we would join in."
Clearly delighted, Raila exclaimed, "This is fine" as Betty asked if he felt ambushed.
The journalist went further and asked the ODM leader if he was proud of what Babu was doing as MP to which he replied,"Yes, otherwise he wouldn't be seating here."
On his part, Babu admitted that he was following in the footsteps of Raila and the meeting was one of many mentoring sessions where they discussed life matters.
"I seek wisdom from Raila, he's been in the political arena for decades. Before I make any move, I have to consult him because he's my political father," the MP noted.
Raila observed that, economically, times were hard for Kenyans and stated that people should be ready to sacrifice knowing that things are going to be better.
"We should look into the cost of living not only increasing the wages," he stated.
He further commended young people in leadership positions and advised them to work together to impact meaningful change in policies.
"There are young leaders who are doing a good job but they should know that nothing comes easy. They can contribute their ideas and strategize to work as a team," he explained.
