'The petition was informed by research conducted earlier in the year. According to findings, a majority of Kenyans preferred a rotational presidency, which in their view would bring political stability in a country dogged by tribal political alliances.'

Nigeria is not legal but political arrangement. And it's really btw alliance btw Yoruba & Hausa - with Igbo getting the wrong end.

We have good rotational presidency going on now btw Kalenjin and kikuyus.

This has brought stability to kenya since 1960s turmoil.

Luos, Luhyas and kambas need to re-align along the current arrangement.

Next change over - Maybe a luhya can provide DPORK to a KIkuyu - eventually breaking the circle.

Or maybe we can go full Luhya in Sakaja :) He will be half-luhya but that would mean breaking kikuyu-kalenjin alliance

Which wont be good for country stability.

So all factors considered - 2032 - rotatation will continue

2032 will be Kimani-Cheruiyot. Lobbying President hard, I think he is almost there!

Both have leadership in parliament to prove themselves - how they dispense with Raila will be critical.

If one looks at the current System it is more inclusive.
GEMA learnt the hard way that Presidency is not everything the had Uhuru in the last 10 years and he only made himself rich and took development to Nyanza. Kalenjins are the next to learn it the hard way.

we learnt our lesson in 2002.
Ruto has zero pressure from Kalenjin.
Ask aroud.
Kalenjin at core are not selfish people - we are perhaps one most generous people on earth.
even poorest of Kalenjin - will beseech you to drink their water - if they dont have anything to share.
it is abomination not to share.
Kikuyu and ogiek/dorobo are naturally selfish people.
We dont expect Ruto to give us everything.
But well being Kalenjin - lazima he will share - but make sure he will share to his side.

Kalenjin have a saying for that - Share but share towards home or you.

So if you go to a kalenjin home - they will share the ugali - but somehow the kids and owner of house will get a big share.

They will scoop deeper when it their own :) or give them more meat than a stranger;

If one looks at the current System it is more inclusive.
