"New Raila2007 in New Jersey" A Charade..

Dear Raila2007,

As a Raila2007 leader, you may have read in the some of the e-mails flying around and/or in Jaluo.com an article(s) claiming that there is a "New Raila007" formed in New Jersey. We Raila2007 New Jersey chapter are not aware of any division and that any of our member(s) is dissatisfied for whatever reason and is pulling away. As a matter of fact, we do not have any member named Justus Otiende. It is therefore curious that a none member without a real name would talk of division in Raila2007 New Jersey Chapter.

For two days now since the article was written, we in New Jersey have unsuccesfully inquired to know who "Justus Otiende" is. We have now concluded that he is NOT a face or personality in New Jersey. We are therefore treating this claim as a propaganda tool employed by our detractors to cast us in bad light.

All of you know of the relationship that exists between Dr. Ayaga and Ambassador Ogego. You are also aware what role he (Ayaga) has played since the Raila2007 movement began. It is indeed dishonest to insinuate that Dr. Ayaga is working against Raila. Raila himself would laugh that notion off, because he knows who Odeyo Ayaga is and what he is doing for him.

Is "Otiende" saying that whoever meets ambassador Ogego cannot be a true Raila supporter? Shall we Kenyans in the US who are Raila supporters therefore petition the Kibaki government to send a new ambasador who is friendly to Raila's cause?

Comrade, we have seen these moves before, and we have handled them. This scheme by a fake person under the cover of darkness will not be any different. Our mission and shared ideals will not be compromised by rumour mongers, but be vigilant, because sooner or later, you will hear of another "New Raila2007" in your chapter

I implore on you to dismiss this claim with the contempt it deserves and urge 'Justus Otiende" to solve his personal problems with Ayaga.
