The announcement, made recently through the Head of Public Service, has sparked widespread debate, with reactions ranging from praise for recognizing Ida's lifelong advocacy to concerns over its political implications.
Political analyst Professor Herman Manyora has weighed in controversially, claiming that Raila Odinga's spirit would oppose this appointment. Manyora suggested the move is a strategic ploy by President Ruto to divide the Odinga family's influence and Luo community support ahead of future elections.
He argued that offering Ida such a prominent diplomatic role based at UNEP headquarters in Nairobi serves to weaken the Odinga legacy rather than honor it genuinely. Manyora has previously cautioned that if Ida entered active politics, it would give Ruto "sleepless nights," implying her potential as a formidable figure.
