Rosemary Odinga Net Worth, Biography, Career, Personal Life

Rosemary Odinga Education Background

She began her schooling just like her brothers at Kilimani Junior Academy where her brilliance was evident for all to see. Rosemary’s journey in primary school got turbulent when she was just five years old due to her father’s political activities. Due to the attempted coup in 1982, her father Raila Odinga among other politicians were detained and with that, Rosemary and her brothers were separated from their fathers. This marked the beginning of a particularly tough time for the Odinga family. 

Their mother Ida Odinga was a high school teacher at the time, and with their father’s detention, finances got tight and managing the household became an uphill task for her. The kids had to be transferred to a public school that would accept them being directly affiliated with a man whom the state was after. Rosemary joined Consolata Primary School. 

Thereafter, she went to the United States of America and is currently an alumnus of the University of Dallas and Havard Univerity.
