Diplomatic Affairs analyst Ahmed Hashi has claimed that opposition leader Raila Odinga could lose the African Union Commission (AUC) chairperson seat to Djibouti’s candidate Mahmoud Youssouf.
During an interview on Daybreak, Hashi weighed in on Raila’s chances to clinch the seat after he was endorsed by the East African Community (EAC) States.
The analyst, who previously worked as a spokesperson in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, speculated that the French government would interfere in the elections and influence the Francophone countries to unite and edge out Kenya’s candidate.
