Speaking about his health struggles, Oburu recalled how seriously he viewed his condition and the possibility that he might not have enough time to express his feelings to the people who mattered to him.
The veteran politician said that at one point, he feared he was approaching the end of his life before getting an opportunity to communicate what was in his heart.
“When I was sick, I thought I was going too early, before I could express my feelings,” Oburu said.
His remarks offer a glimpse into the personal thoughts he experienced while dealing with his health challenges, highlighting the emotional uncertainty that can accompany serious illness.
The statement has also drawn attention to the importance of expressing love, appreciation and personal feelings to family members and close friends rather than waiting for uncertain moments in life.
Oburu's account comes at a time when his political activities and public engagements continue to attract attention, particularly following developments within the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM).
His remarks have provided a more personal perspective on the challenges he has faced beyond his public and political responsibilities.
However, he did not provide further details in the quoted statement about the specific illness or the circumstances surrounding his recovery.
The revelation has offered Kenyans an opportunity to reflect on the human experiences behind political leaders, reminding the public that even prominent figures face moments of uncertainty and vulnerability.
