Ohangla star Evans Ochieng Owino, better known by his stage name Prince Indah, has announced the release of a heartfelt tribute song dedicated to the late Raila Amolo Odinga, Kenya’s former Prime Minister and revered statesman, whose death earlier today has plunged the nation into mourning.
In an emotional statement shared across his social media platforms on Wednesday, October 15, 2025, the celebrated musician revealed that the song—titled “Wuod Oganda, Amolo 3 in 1”—will officially premiere on Thursday, October 16, 2025, at 6:00 a.m.
Prince Indah explained that the timing of the release carries deep cultural meaning, symbolically set “before the Sun has risen, as directed by Juogi,” referencing Luo ancestral spirits.
“BABA! AGWAMBO! JAKOM! TINGA! ENIGMA! NYUNDO! RAO! PEOPLE’S PRESIDENT! JOSHUA… Ladies and gentlemen, the spirits of Got Ramogi have descended upon me this evening. I am in the studio recording Wuod Oganda, Amolo 3 in 1 — a special tribute song to be released tomorrow morning at 6:00 a.m., before sunrise as guided by Juogi. FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS, JAKAWUOR,”
wrote Prince Indah on Facebook.
The announcement has since drawn an overwhelming response from fans, many expressing their grief and anticipation for the song, which is expected to capture the deep emotional connection between Raila and his supporters.
Raila Odinga’s Funeral Programme
Raila Odinga passed away on Wednesday morning, October 15, 2025, in India at the age of 80, after suffering a cardiac arrest during a morning walk.
According to the official funeral programme released by Deputy President Kithure Kindiki, the late statesman will be laid to rest on Sunday, October 19, 2025, at his Opoda home in Bondo, Siaya County.
Kindiki revealed that Raila had expressed a personal wish to be buried within 72 hours of his passing, a request that the government and family have agreed to honour.
“The family informed President Ruto that according to Raila Odinga’s will, he wished to be buried within the shortest time possible—ideally within 72 hours,” Kindiki stated.
As per the schedule, a Kenyan delegation departed for Mumbai to accompany Raila’s remains back home. The body is expected to arrive at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) at 8:30 a.m. on Thursday, where it will be received with full state honours.
From JKIA, the body will be taken to Lee Funeral Home, followed by a solemn procession to State House at midday, and later to Parliament Buildings at 2:00 p.m., where Kenyans will be allowed to pay their last respects.
On Friday, October 17, a national prayer service will be held at Nyayo Stadium, before the body proceeds to Kisumu and Bondo. On Saturday, October 18, mourners will have another opportunity for a public viewing at Moi Stadium, Kisumu, ahead of the burial on Sunday, October 19, at his rural home.
