Police said Fidel Odinga, 41, seen by political observers as a potential successor to his father, returned home on Saturday night after an evening out drinking with friends and was found dead in his bed on Sunday.
“The death … is being treated as unexplained. We are investigating his final movements. A forensic pathologist has been called in and a post mortem will be conducted to establish the cause of death,” a Kenyan detective said.
Raila Odinga, a former prime minister, leads the opposition Coalition for Reforms and Democracy and is an outspoken critic of President Uhuru Kenyatta’s government. Last month, he accused Kenyatta of turning Kenya into a dictatorship.
