Title: Postmortem: Jubilee has lost on Every Side
Post by: vooke on February 06, 2018, 09:36:03 PM
-Opposition MPs get to keep their guns
-No opposition MP can be arrested
-Passport order will be quashed
-Media houses shutdown accomplished NOTHING
-One too many accidental heroes...Miguna,Kajwang,Babu
- It’s now official; Babu is deity,can’t be arrested
- NASWA has forgotten about their splits and focused on Jubilee
-Animosity towards RVGEMA is at an all time high

The list is endless

We are still miles away from Canaan.  More work to be done. Judiciary was the only branch of the government that was somehow standing but after the event of the last few days I doubt this institution will be salvageable.

Like I said, Uhuru should not have listened to that hot head, the fool Matiangi. The wisest response to the swearing in would have been mocking and laughter then continue with business as usual. Why was he acting like a man threatened by an opposition with no guns or institutional power, just words and protests? I saw CNN asking questions along those lines. He should have listened to Grand Mullah, not Matiangi.

And now I hear Miguna has been deported from his own motherland. I'm shaking my head.

Miguna will be more lethal peeing in from outside than when he was here. Now he has a golden opportunity to build the movement from outside and source for funds something that NRM did not have. The last thing that jubilee idiots need is Miguna on CNN, Fox, BBC, SKY news or Aljazeera whom I believe cannot wait to interview him. Miguna has reconciled himself to the fight ahead, he is a wounded bull but not broken, totally fearless. He should take a week off, rest and reset then from there media blitz and speech tour through North America, Europe then Africa. Give then hell General Miguna

I think you credit Matiangi with too much. His is just to implement. Just as all the dead negroes before him. The reaction was a political decision so it must have taken the ICC suspects and their highest advisors

I imagine Matiang'i is one of the highest advisors. He is very temperamental and the kind to please the boss. This deportation debacle looks like something Uhuru and Matiang'i would do over the more calculating Ruto's misgivings.

But Robina, you guys have been cheering on these shenanigans in order to teach people a lesson for insulting the little king, Muigai. As if disrespecting a politician, even a president, even one with no claims of illegitimacy leveled at him, has become a crime.  And then you guys talk about democracy and use the law to protect this presidency. 

Uhuru is acting in a way that depicts him as a straight-up thug with no respect for the law rather than a respectable head of government. This stuff only makes a lot of people see him as capable of the monstrosities this government has already been accused of such as electoral fraud and threatening/using heads of institutions. Why would you cheer him on in that if you believed in his legitimacy? He has the state and international recognition and the support of a sizeable chunk of the population even if not the absolute majority and the opposition have no arms or intentions to acquire them. That would be enough to keep calm for most sane negroes but Uhuru is acting very weirdly instead. Maybe he got drunk again on the day of the swearing-in and hasn't sobered up since last week, who knows. I haven't seen him in public.

I can only think that this is an attempt, not to defeat opposition but to install a brazen dictatorship. That's the worst case scenario so I'm still hoping that Uhuru is just ego-stung and has temporarily lost his senses ie he's throwing a tantrum and will soon calm down.

Like Pundito said else where,
All governments have gray areas where they straddle the fine line between executive suit types and millitary animals.

Let's say calling Uhuru dictator is so last century just as saying Babu is power hungry. He did what he had to do when push came to shove. If whatever he is doing is bad for him, Babu supporters should be cheering him self-destruct

That's frankly B.S.: What exactly forced Uhuru's hand here? He has the state, international recognition, and the support of a good chunk of the population even if he's hated by the rest. The opposition have literally nothing but words and demos. Explain again your notion of things being forced on him to do what he "must". This is just your spin as usual, to make Muigai's clumsiness seem well thought out and calculated rather than dumb. You're apologizing for the dude.

They had successfully ignored these alleged calls for nusu-mkate, no? What exactly have they gained now as opposed to continuing on that route? All the opposition had managed was a peaceful non-binding ceremony many scoffed at. What was the point of giving them a cause?

The jubilant mobster and his minions get a high from impunity.  This is a crucial element of their continued misrule. 

What Raila did, was impunity squared in their mind and that of most wananchi.  The jubilant feels one upped and is merely trying to reclaim his spot at the top of the impunity totem pole. 

The problem is, without taking on Raila head on, the jubilant feels that he has lost that battle for impunity.  The result?  Ever more brazen attempts to demonstrate that he “too” is above the law.

The blunder? They should have ignored the swearing in.  By going after the role players, they merely accentuated their impotence against the main culprit.

Uhuru's fear was Babu antics buying him more votes. You have to remember that the contentious results put him ahead by a mere 9%. That's a margin that can be easily wrecked. Uhunye knows this and it scares him endlessly.

Kadame, you gave Jubilee free advise on how to deal with this manenos but I am glad they ignored you. We in the opposition now have so much to work with in undermining this illegal government.

The court must now send a clear message to these despots. Judge Kimaru must order the government to 1) revoke it’s illegal deportation order and return Miguna to Kenya at its own cost- unless Miguna declines. 2) compensate Miguna immediately for the repairs of damages made to his house by the rogue police who illegally detained him and forcibly removed him from his country of birth illegally. 3) impose a fine of ksh. 2 million a day until the government  comply with these orders beginning 7 days from today of which Ksh 1 million to Miguna and ksh 1 million to the victims of police brutality. The court must now stop issuing empty statements and orders that are easy to ignore but realize that they are dealing with thugs.  The orders from now henceforth must  bite if the court want to regain its constitutional position as an equal branch of this government. Maraga's statements have set the tone and the judges need to be bold.

Maybe I was not clear enough,but I think Uhunye has always had this inferiority Complex since 2013 probably due to either he rigged his way in or he barely trounced Babu who was severely financially challenged and much older. So real fear of Babu.

August 2017 results were disappointing. For an incumbent to ‘win’ that narrowly despite 4yrs of handling state coffers is an indictment. Then he loses even that little joy at SCOK. And Babu pulls out.

Then you have an empty Kasarani vs a modestly packed Uhuru Park. That’s an insult right there.

So cutting Babu to size, or arresting his growth , are his primary drivers.

I’m still not persuaded there’s anyone within Jubilee who saw immediate threat from Uhuru Park,especially after the other girls no show and a watered down oath. What they couldn’t miss was how insanely innovative and effective that mock ceremony was.

Miguna is not coming back.
Unless if to apply for citizenship which he is entitled to.
He will also not badmouth Uhunye yet. He is at his mercy maybe until he gets his citizenship

vooke Miguna is not politically savvy or even calculating. It's more likely he'll unleash a blockbuster on the Kenyattas starting with Jomo. Prolly drag Moi in somewhere. Something like "The Kenyan Despots". People like Joho quickly moved on after picking a fight he couldn't win with Uhuru. Not Miguna.

Watching the unfolding scenarios since RAO's "inauguration" has been interesting.

Miguna deported, David Ndii has massively toned down his tweets against Jubilee and is now mainly sticking to economics, Orengo quiet, Muthama not blabbering, Kalonzo thinking of 2022 etc.

The mistake RAO did was going through the so-called inauguration. Yes, there were thousands of people who witnessed it but at the end of the day, it's obvious that RAO did not think of the consequences. MDVD, Weta, and Kalonzo did, that's why they stayed away.

Power. That's what it boils down to.

RAO has no power whatsoever and, after his "inauguration", it's become more and more obvious to everyone around him.

Ndii, Wanjigi and Orengo at DCI to block arrest

NASA leaders led by Siaya Senator James Orengo have appeared at the DCI after they sought anticipatory bail from the courts.

Orengo who is also a lawyer for the Opposition was with Businessman Jimmy Wanjigi, Embakasi East MP Babu Owino and NASA Strategist David Ndii.

The leaders arrived at the DCI headquarters at 12 pm to serve the DCI boss Geroge Kinoti with the anticipatory orders from the Court.

The fresh elections deadline have been pushed forward another 6 months; the first 3 month deadline long expired. There are are also no takers for the People's cabinet, so it's been scrapped. Only Babu Owino has informally claimed to be the People's Interior CS. Now they are back to wanting a new political system with PM.

Poor Robina. You are really looking hard with high powered microscope to  find straws to hold on to and hairs to split. This is an organic movement to reform Kenya and there are no deadlines for the total liberation. We are pleased with the progress we are making and no amount of silly insults from clueless and confused people like you mean anything. This movement is getting bigger by the day. Focus on the common man and not the leaders if you truly want to know what’s going on. Look how quickly it swallowed. Leaders are trying to keep pace with it by ratcheting up their rhetoric fearful that they may not be radical enough. Miguna, Joho and Raila has set such a high standard for them and everyone is playing catch-up.

If you find it necessary to respond to my "insults" I should be really pleased.

I said Kichwa you need a mirror. Like the incomprehensible views of the Jubilee supporters in Nyeri you blamed on propaganda. The radical NASA supporters you refer must be so enlightened, nothing to do with political messaging by their leaders.

vooke Miguna is not politically savvy or even calculating. It's more likely he'll unleash a blockbuster on the Kenyattas starting with Jomo. Prolly drag Moi in somewhere. Something like "The Kenyan Despots". People like Joho quickly moved on after picking a fight he couldn't win with Uhuru. Not Miguna.

He might as well pen a book.  I wouldn't expect the jubilant to grant him citizenship under any circumstances(based on whatever relevance the law retains) anyway.

I have no problem with Jubilee supporters in Nyeri.  I understand where they are coming from and my goal in life is not to change their minds. I am very focused on the NASA fraternity and unlike the old days of mwakenya, we have social media to speed to make communication a breeze and make it absolutely impossible for this despotic regime to muscle our communication. We are not worried about time nor are we control by day to day headlines. When they crackdown on NASA leaders, the movement goes underground and again with the easy of communication, underground is really not that deep underground.  I strongly believe we will succeed and if Nyeri people too believe they will succeed then that is fine. The problem is that time is not on their side. Ouru is already a lame duck president and their are limits to which he can wield state power. Even dictatorship needs a huge complacent and compliant segment of the population to survive. Ouruto do not have that.Ouruto cannot outlive our commitment to change and he will fail miserably trying to subdue or intimidate us to compliance and complacency.  That is why I am very confident that he will not be able to sustain our daily onslaught.

Windy, the jubilee government does not confer citizenship-the constitution does.  This matter of citizenship is bigger than Miguna. A lot of Kenyans got their dwell citizenship before 2010 and they are the ones who put a lot of pressure on the leaders to get dwell citizenship. The law that one has to re-apply to get their natural citizenship back is unconstitutional and must be challenged all the way to the supreme court. Under the old constitution one was considered to have "renounced" their Kenyan citizenship just by merely acquiring the citizenship of another country.  We got rid of that constitution and under the 2010 constitution which is the law of the land that language does not exist.  Many Kenyans living in the US and elsewhere are not happy with this statute but refused to challenge it until the Miguna "deportation".  I therefore believe that this particular statute/regulation will be found unconstitutional and natural born Kenyans will only have to prove that they were born in Kenya to acquire a national ID or a Passport.

vooke Miguna is not politically savvy or even calculating. It's more likely he'll unleash a blockbuster on the Kenyattas starting with Jomo. Prolly drag Moi in somewhere.

Actually if he depoliticizes the issue he will get it instantly. Outside of politics I doubt he even needs Kenyan citizenship. Irony.

I know you have nothing against Nyeri people. Your view of them mirrors theirs of you. The radicalization is a reflection. The risk of betrayal Ruto had with Kikuyus is gone for this reason - they see him as a savior contrasted to radical NASA. Right into his game, do you see?

A few things NASA sings are actually good for the country. Independent courts, IEBC, devolution, etc. Others like PM and katiba changes are bad: we just reversed 50 years of that and the new system is just 7 years along. Such ideas expose "electoral justice" as a smokescreen. And these demands, and other things, they are the exact mandate of an opposition. Just avoid the treasonable stuff.

Miguna never talked or discussed his citizenship until his dual citizenship was politicized. Talk about blaming the victim. You are losing your mind. Kenyan citizenship does not belong to jubilee and Miguna will not beg Jubilee to give it back. He never lost it and he will get his passport back and enter the country triumphatically  without begging jubilee for it. I told you that time is not an issue for us in NASA.

You want presumption of citizenship
The drafters of katiba were for much smarter; they shifted responsibility of regaining citizenship to those who lost. It’s their right,he’s but they must ask for it.

Please note this is no statute or legislation but the very constitution itself.

Read it again

14. (1) A person is a citizen by birth if on the day of the person’s birth, whether or not the person is born in Kenya, either the mother or father of the person is a citizen.

(2) Clause (1) applies equally to a person born before the effective date, whether or not the person was born in Kenya, if either the mother or father of the person is or was a citizen.

(3) Parliament may enact legislation limiting the effect of clauses (1) and (2) on the descendents of Kenyan citizens who are born outside Kenya.

(4) A child found in Kenya who is, or appears to be, less than eight years of age, and whose nationality and parents are not known, is presumed to be a citizen by birth.

(5) A person who is a Kenyan citizen by birth and who, on the effective date, has ceased to be a Kenyan citizen because the person acquired citizenship of another country, is entitled on application to regain Kenyan citizenship.



I expect Miguna to fly back and apply for citizenship. There is no single reason why he should be denied. Should he be denied or delayed, he may sue immigration for infringement of his fundamental rights,and it will be promptly granted.

What he shouldn’t do is to waste time arguing that he was a citizen by presumption..had a Kenyan passport, registered to vote, vied etc

Windy, the jubilee government does not confer citizenship-the constitution does.  This matter of citizenship is bigger than Miguna. A lot of Kenyans got their dwell citizenship before 2010 and they are the ones who put a lot of pressure on the leaders to get dwell citizenship.

Two tribe domination - it's called universal suffrage democracy. Anyone can run, not all can win. Ruto is next.

You paint Jubilee supporters as brainwashed (by propaganda) - but NASA followers as informed. That was on Windy's video of Nyeri. I do not speak for you or NASA of course, I read your words.

If one just arrived from Mars they might mistake NASA as law-abiding or its demands and agitations as legit. Until they meet the amorphous NRM, People's Assembly, boycotts, demos, oaths and etc illegalities. You are a rogue opposition. I can imagine Mr Miguna explaining to the foreign media why he was deported and expecting sympathy.

There is a Kiswahili word for that; kujichocha.
KM is no different from Tuju. That he can’t address you without insults means he is terribly frustrated at being called out :D

Here’s Tuju on BBC. Blames everything on tribalism.
and here’s Babu. At pains to explain his actions so much that he can’t reconcile not recognizing Uhuru with his faux swearing-in

That is true, if one can casually ignore election rigging on August 8th and pretend that IEBC wanted to defy a court order for fun.  October 26, it was virtually the two tribes by themselves.
