Kenya: ODM Leader Oburu Discharged After a Fortnight in Hospital

Oburu Oginga walked out of Nairobi Hospital this week after spending two weeks under medical care, putting an end to the swirling speculation that had built up around his prolonged absence from public life.

The Orange Democratic Movement leader's admission had drawn attention partly because of his high profile within ODM, and his time away from public engagements had prompted questions from followers and observers watching closely for updates.

Details about the nature of his illness have not been made public, but the confirmation of his discharge is the clearest signal yet that he is on the mend. For now, all eyes will be on when Oburu returns to the political stage and what his next move looks like.
