A video of Westland’s MP candidate on UDA Ticket Nelson Havi donning a Raila branded cap has elicited mixed reactions from Kenyans.
Havi during a morning interview with Vybes Radio was captured dancing to a reggae tune while wearing a cap bearing Raila Odinga’s R slogan.
He has however made light of the situation saying, “Just add ‘uto’ to the ‘R’. Don’t bury the cow with its milk.”
He further called on the youth to use their strength in numbers and exercise their democratic right by voting during the August 9, general elections.

The video has elicited mixed reactions from Kenyans with a section branding him a mole in UDA while others applauded him for acknowledging Raila Odinga’s role in Kenyan politics.
Notably, earlier this month, Havi ideally made headlines when he drummed up support for his preferred ODM candidates. In a tweet, Havi stated that despite their political divides, he wishes the ODM candidates clinch their respective seats.
The five were James Orengo, Tom Ojienda, Millie Odhiambo, Dr Evans Kidero and blogger Robert Alai.
Here are some reactions from Twitter:
