A black and white photograph, mounted on a plain, light-colored wall, depicts a historical swearing-in ceremony. The photograph itself shows signs of surface wear and reflections. Two adult males are the primary subjects. On the left, Jaramogi Oginga Odinga, identified by the accompanying caption, is depicted mid-action. He wears a light-colored, long-sleeved tunic and a dark cap with a light-colored geometric pattern. His left hand holds a sheet of paper from which he appears to be reading, while his right arm is raised, holding a light-colored ceremonial whisk or fly-whisk. His gaze is directed downwards towards the document. To the right, another adult male, possibly a judicial or parliamentary official, stands or sits behind a microphone on a stand. He wears a dark robe, a traditional white judicial wig, and eyeglasses. His hands are positioned in front of him, possibly resting on a desk or holding an unseen object. He appears to be observing Odinga. The background of the black and white photograph is dark and indistinct, suggesting an indoor, formal setting. Below the main photograph, a white rectangular label with black text reads: "Jaramogi Oginga Odinga being sworn-in as MP for Bondo. 12th December, 1964." The event depicted is Jaramogi Oginga Odinga's swearing-in as Member of Parliament for Bondo, which encompasses South Sakwa ward, Kenya, on December 12, 1964. The current image captures this historical photograph displayed on a wall, indicating its presentation as a historical record within a general area associated with South Sakwa ward in Kenya.
