Former Prime Minister, Raila Odinga's son, Raila Junior has been blessed with a newborn child. In a post he made a few minutes ago on his Twitter page, the man was in a jubilant mood as he congratulated his wife, Yvonne Wambui Kibukosya, for successfully giving birth on his mother's birthday.

His message read, "She gave my mum, Ida Odinga, the best birthday present in the world. At Yvejr1 Thank you God bless you. I love you so much!"

His fans and followers were quick to troop into the comments sections. Some of the comments are below:

This is a great addition for the family considering that Raila Junior and his wife had struggled to get a child for a great many years before getting a son after 5 years.

Raila Junior has been married to Yvonne for more than a decade and told Massawe Japanni in 2019, how frustrating it had been for the couple.

“I hope she (Yvonne) will allow me to disclose this. We had been married for a long time and we weren’t able to get a child in the very first years. We struggled for a very long time for about four, five years and eventually, God blessed us with our firstborn, a son,” the 42-year-old Raila Junior revealed.

The frustrations were mostly due to pressure from their relatives and friends.

“Yvonne and I were so okay not being able to conceive for those years, but the frustrations became unbearable because of the pressure from outside. I also tried so hard not to subject Yvonne to more pressure because of the situation,” he added.
