1/ One of the sad outcomes of Handshake is that whereas it gave Uhuru the political cover to reorganize government, so that for the first time since 2013 he called ALL the shots, that reorganization never extended to any substantial co-option of Raila's men. 2/ Uhuru men were the biggest beneficiaries. As Ruto 'influence' in govt waned; the void was exclusively filled by/with Uhuru men/women. And these people were GREEDY.

1/ Suspension of Hon. @RobertAlai by Nairobi County Assembly Speaker Ken Ng'ondi is IMPUNITY fighting back. Alai had protested favouritism in the assembly where nominated female MCAs are globe-trotting in what appears to be sex-for-trips arrangement by assembly leadership. Image 2/ It all started when Alai protested to the Majority Leader Hon. Peter Imatwok (below) why ELECTED male MCAs rarely get a chance for such trips. The Alai-Imatwok altercation got heated with Imatwok wailing uncontrollably, claiming Hon. Alai had threatened to sodomise him. Image

Between declaration of Pres. Uhuru as 'duly' re-elected after 2017 repeat poll and the handshake in March 2018, there was not a single sentiment of opposition to Uhuru coming from Mt. Kenya. Not from the political class & not from below. Go study media coverage of that period. My theory has always been that Uhuru embracing Raila was the MAIN reason Mt. Kenya fell out with him. It wasn't due to govt policies. GoK policies post-handshake did not change from what they were pre-handshake. The so called 'Mt. Kenya businesses' were still cushioned by Uhuru.

GOVERNMENTS in Africa which are heavily subsidized by the West are re-entering a new phase of autocracy, akin to the wasted years of the Cold War.

[A short thread...] As the West (US/UK/France/EU) heighten their war with an ascendant China on who calls the final shot on world affairs, it'll demand extreme subservience from their debt-ridden third world kakistocracies.

PAY ATTENTION to the things Mt. Kenya people CLAP in support of. That this country of 50+ million people you decide only ONE PERSON must never be engaged in its affairs. What is it that Raila Odinga did to these people?

🚮 This one, by the way, is the Deputy Speaker of the Senate of the Republic of Kenya. What drives these people to hold this much hate in their hearts? What is it that compels them to be this bigoted? How is this society to progress with this level of ethnic narrow-mindedness?

Kilifi, in its vastness, is one of the poorest places in Kenya. So poor it is that BBI created for it FOUR additional constituencies. That would have meant Ksh 600m annually to those poor households. But the #BBIFraud bandwagon condemned those people into bottomless poverty. If you opposed BBI, you have blood in your hands.

You aided Paul Mackenzie in murdering all those people.

Because, folks, there's a nexus between poverty and religious cultism!

Kilifi needs more resources to pull people out of extreme poverty.
We provided, YOU sabotaged.

How Schools Pass National Exams in Kenya:

1) CATEGORY A SCHOOLS.
Get both KCSE question Papers & Marking Scheme in good time. Teachers get time to go through the papers and marking scheme early enough. Principals have direct links to KNEC cartels. All students pass. 2) CATEGORY B SCHOOLS.
Principals are darlings to A Principals. They receive question Papers in fairly good time to revise. They don't get marking schemes from A Principals as marking scheme is the secret weapon and preserve for A schools. Majority students pass.

VICTORY WITHOUT VICTORY

President Uhuru became unpopular with his Mt. Kenya people because, soon after handshake, he embraced Luo Nyanza, and moved to develop it at the same pace as the rest of the country. Even though what Uhuru was doing for Luo Nyanza was peanuts compared to his own backyard, which gobbled the most resources annually throughout Uhuru presidency, you could see the bitterness which the post-handshake allocation of those peanuts created in Mt Kenya.
