Raila, Kalonzo, Wetangula, Mudavadi: “riots” engulfed country 2016 as Cord peacefully protested for Electoral reforms. Our bipartisan parliamentary caucus met to conversed w/ each of you. We also talked to President Uhuru & Ruto. We successfully achieved dialogue, Select Comte.
All of you - except Ruto - received us so well, approved our effort. Ruto viciously protested initiative. They’re now eating him ravenously, as did you 2016/17/18. As a citizen privileged to know ‘101‘, asking you defend Ruto’s constitutional rights, Jubilee implosions aside.
1992 Moi regime blocked Matiba, Jaramogi and Kibaki not to enter Embu/Meru, North Eastern, Eldoret/Baringo respectively. 2002 system collapsed. 2007 we called each other MaDoaDoa & NyamuCiaRuguru. 2013/17 we branded rivals Muguruki/Kimundu, Mlevi/Wezi; manifestos NOT. Not again!
Power tussles are inevitable into 2022. Anyone wanting to be President or whatever let him/her pursue goal. Fact: UhuRuto collapsed. Fact: UhuRao collapsing. #BBI has become a poisoned chalice, daraja imeanguka! We need to talk and act against Graft, innovate Economic recovery.
As I stood for stood for Raila’s constitutional rights when I was Jubilee MP, I will defend Ruto’s rights. They called me a Raila man then, they’ll call me a Ruto man now! So? Then? Returning Kenya to police state as Moi’s era is obnoxious. Uhuru should sort out conflict w/ Ruto.
2012 we rejected overtures by outgoing mandarins to subvert democracy into 2013. 2020 we refuse to accept autocracy for 2022. Kenyans of goodwill must rise to speak against intolerance, chicanery and corruption, or violence, intimidations, political assassinations will rule.
Let’s accept that we are into 2022 campaign tempo. Jubilee asunder. NASA apart. But, MOST IMPORTANT agenda is how to crash runaway corruption, stem impunity, redress rising economic challenges - loss of jobs, unemployment, collapse of businesses, impossible foreign debts. Yep!

Renewed vitriol on Raila by Tangatanga MPs is cowardly. It’s vain, blatant attempt at revising history. 1992 & 1997 so-called land-crashes were politically sponsored by KANU against opposition supporters. Raila was forefront in opposition. FACT. Like many of us he was victim.
Kiliku, NCCK, Akiwumi & other reports revealed plotters +perpetrators. Local & foreign media published. YK92 In thick of it. 1997 Urais: Raila, Ngilu, Wamalwa lost. No violence Siaya, Kitui, Bungoma. Kibaki “lost”. Nyeri calm. 1992 Matiba rigged out but Murang’a calm. Villains?
2002 most peaceful multiparty poll. Uhuru conceded even as some allies resisted. Moi ensured smooth transition. 2013 smooth too as Raila conceded after @Kenyajudiciary petition flopped. W/ Kalonzo called on UhuRuto @StateHouseKenya, recognized UhuRuto presidency. No violence

We reluctantly but robustly supported UhuRuto deal
after political propagandists fabricated 07/08 PEV investigations. SOME victims were depicted villains. We JUSTIFIABLY sympathized, defended our own. That’s after quiet efforts by some of us to get Raila-Uhuru alliance failed.
2013-17, Ruto controlled both Houses of Parliament and Executive. Anyone wanting a FIX went to see Ruto. Even governors in trouble with Senate! He fixed all. We still don’t know why Uhuru let it happen. Everyone knows ‘Annex’ became ‘Extortion Palace’. Well-oiled Sky Team ruled.
Jubilee REBELLION against Uhuru was born 2013, escalated 2017. We shouldn’t blame Ruto; was doing his game - ruthlessly, generously, impatiently. Anyone disagreeing was isolated and viciously fought. But Uhuru didn’t care on alarms. We don’t hate Ruto. But he’s so INTOLERANT.
