Really fascinated by the ART OF REINVENTION (feeding on ignorance) by KENYAN Political class.
A very short thread. 🧵
A very short thread. 🧵
Andrew SUNKULI was chosen Monday as Kalonzo Musyoka's running mate. He was referred to us a publisher and a businessman. That's it. He seems to have come from nowhere. 
In fact, my colleague @murithi_kenn caught up with him that Monday morning, and the chosen one described himself as "AN ANONYMOUS HERDSMAN," maybe, I'm LOST he said..smiling nervously.
Well, Andrew Leteipa Sunkuli, is also the last owner of KENYA TIMES, which in itself is another story for another day. But, journalists from KENYA TIMES describe him a little different than "an anonymous herdsman."
He oversaw the firing of over 100 journalists and more than 200 staffers, but the most important question is how he came to own KENYA TIMES.
Somewhere in 2008, the anonymous herdsman wrestled KENYA TIMES from another powerful KENYAN running for presidency in this election. (Another fascinating story for another day)
He is a former DANIEL MOI handler and perhaps his best description is a smooth talker and a very shrewd character. He introduces himself as a publisher, author and businessman.
In 2013 he stood against his brother, Julius Sunkuli for the Narok governor, it's not true that he is "an anonymous herder" and NO he wasn't LOST I'm KALONZO's command center. Here is the video by @murithi_kenn again. Longer version. #END
