Goons recruited and bankrolled by politicians, some now serving in the coalition government of President Kibaki and Prime Minister Raila Odinga, systematically decimated whole families. In one incident in Western Kenya, marauding thugs, believed to be supporters of Prime Minister Raila Odinga and Agriculture Minister William Ruto, soaked a church where members of the populous Kikuyu community were cowering with petrol and set it ablaze. About fifty mostly women and children perished in that most bestial attack."

Obama fundraisers and donors raised in the U.S. almost $1 million for Odinga in the three visits the Democratic presidential candidate arranged for Odinga to make to the U.S. An additional $1 million was raised for Odinga by Saif el-Islam Gadhafi, the Libyan dictators second oldest son.
