Kandara MP has aptly captured the democrazy and economic moment in history.
It will be an interesting year - will the cat be belled?

Alice Wahome need to keep calm and finish the journey with uhuru quietly. Tulisema tuu hapa hapa uhuru was going to finish the country, the driver is drunk.... wakakataa....haya Watu wakule ujeuri yao.

biggest existential threat...bla bla bla...

Alice is referred as cucu by uhuru supporters. She won't make it back to parliament ..she is done
-
Uhuru is officially a lame duck.
-
Uhuru's only arsenal against Ruto is rigging Baba in and or denying Ruto a chance to steal the elections
-
How about he stick to agreement, support Ruto and retire as he a respected head of state & receive state pension for the rest of his life

Uhuru has to call off Kibicho nonsense of threatening calls to elected leaders, else he will eat a very humble pie too late. Alice sentiments shows they are tired with his bullshit and ready to go out for the screwball...
The current crop of Central leaders had no chance given they are very few re-elected leaders in kikuyuland but they now have a lifeline.
History has it that Jaramogis, Matibas, Rubias were with Kenyatta and Moi before they turned critics, not sure why it escapes many that this will happen to Uhuru, Raila and even Ruto - politics is about interests more so selfish interests. What has Uhuru got to offer Alice?? Kandara guys are the ones chasing Maina Kamanda like burukenge.

Kibicho has clinically defanged Ruto brigade without firing a single shot. Kibicho has proved himself. Everytime he shows tanga tanga team right jab he swings a left hook, landing the jab decisively.
Alice Wahome, too old, too fatigued and too crooked she is done...in 2013 she had no problem voting for a criminal indicted for crimes against humanity, she trashed chapter 6 of the constitution but now she wants uhuru to respect katiba all based on hypothetical? Years in parliament, what progressive Bills or motion has she pushed to improve kenya livelihoods? Never raised alarm on debt or rampant looting..priss seems the only thing crooked wahome cares about is Alice wahome. I think her interest are threatened. Bure kabisa

The way she fumbled & struggled reading that word "existential" exposed her.... a pointer the author of the document ... was not entirely her...

Mkwasi I am with you on this one ... He will counter all the dirty tricks they sanction when stealing elections ...
He did a dry run on Kibra by-elections. Ruto had put friendly Kale cops at the voting stations. The list was changed come election day..
That is the reason Ouru had a field day taunting Mashamba about those being the most peaceful elections .....
BTW now they admit they even exported their rigging ways to DRC. Death is a great equalizer, they were singing how they pulled up that adventure. “For what profits a man if he gains the whole world but loses his own soul?”

If Ruto was law abiding perhaps anyone would care. He is fighting a losing battle with these minions wailing "tunaonewa" on his behalf. With Raila political cover Uhuru can wage all shenanigans - Kinoti and his Flying Squad is rumored to be new "Ngoroko" anti-stock theft unit of 70s whose job was to curtail Moi. They roundly enbarassed Moi by searching his houses and detaining him at roadblocks. Moi squeezed through but Ruto lacks the savvy to play this out. It is a redux where Matiang'i replace Mbiyu Koinange. But Uhuru is not senile Jomo so Ruto is done.
Statistically only 2 out of 11 VPs ever made it. They were both wise, patient men. Very tough luck.
-
You are so correct Wahome is Ruto screams from the heavy punches. This is exactly the 70s with the clear distinctions that
. Jomo was senile and bed-ridden. It was Njonjo vs Koinange and Moi sneaked through the crossfire. Here we have Uhuru himself swinging the rungu.
. Moi was wise, humble, patient teddy bear. Ruto is the polar opposite fanged wolf that pulled mlolongo and declared war a whole 5 years from the finish line. Big rookie blunder.
. There was no bitter Odinga spoiling to scorn Moi. The man had zero enemies. Ruto has Raila, Uhuru and powerful forces ranged against him.
Kibicho has clinically defanged Ruto brigade without firing a single shot. Kibicho has proved himself. Everytime he shows tanga tanga team right jab he swings a left hook, landing the jab decisively.

Why everyone wants Uhuru blessings for 2022
POLITICS | 20 hours ago
And, on Thursday, Dr Ruto’s allies desperately reached out to him to not only help put the Jubilee Party in order but to also work closely with their man.

THE GOING RATES OF KANDARA ALICE WAHOME
The juice lies elsewhere.
Alice Wahome is a washed-up tramp. It does not mean washed-up tramps speak no truths about men. O they always do in those mischievous memoirs of theirs when they conspiratorially gather in matriarchal sessions, gossiping their experiences with the opposite sex, Them Patriarchs.
But the public proclamations of washed-up tramps are always suspect. Like every politicians.
Alice Wahome is wrong. Terrible diagnostics. Uhuru Kenyatta is not that important to constitute such a, ahem, 'catastrophic' eventuality. The politics of Socio-economic stagnation and debt extraction are the stuff which, no literal meaning here, usually blows up states. Kenya still has some latitude to incur more debt to pay off old debt, and limp on.
But importantly, this fear mongering is the specific horror scenario of a kind. It is based on a pessimism arising from a unilateral interpretation of reality. The disappearance of the state of Kenya, the end of the Berlin to Lancaster affair, is not necessarily a bad thing. No, no more than the disintegration of the Soviet Union was, of Yugoslavia was; or Spain may soon be and the UK along too (with an independent Catalonia and Scotland respectively).
Disintegration, and I use this belly-churning word deliberately, is only a horrible process if a RULING CLASS is not sensible enough to choose the path of VELVET DIVORCE. We saw this go-easy path in Tchekoslovakia. You go your away I go mine, but daily we still drink at the same bar, peacefully, and crack the same old jokes, hilariously.
War is the most stupid form of divorce. You have stupid politicians, you are okay to beware!
BUT stupid politicians need not be heeded at the toughest moments.
OTHER OPTIONS THINKABLE
Were this existential threat to be realised realised in Kenya, it would mean Luoland is freed from the dictates of the far-away capital of Nairobi and their rotten local hirelings. No longer shackled by other Kenyan tribes, the Mount Kenya group would be free to fully express the legendary Gikuyu industriousness. They would, best scenario, catch up with the other mountainous Kingdom of Switzerland in a decade.
Turkana would have all that oil for herself. No longer beholden to pay 95% of it as tribute to the rotten and corrupt Nairobi, Turkana would be free to be a super rich OIL EMIRATE, or, should an epidemic of maimed minds strike, degenerate into an Equatorial Guinea. With a population less than the Rift Valley but oil sales above Norway, Equatorial Guinea is nevertheless poorer than the Central African republic. She needs debt restructuring. The Nguema clan prefers to have luxury-car factories in Europe producing exclusively for them, not to mention buying old satellites as a hobby. ---Nothing wrong with the hobby though. I am a man who keeps old newspaper cuttings. That is another morbid one. The problem is of course The Nguema's do their hobby with public money, wherefore such an expensive hobby becomes Czarian or Marie-Antoinette scandalous. With known results.
For pessimism, there can also be qualified optimism.
It is therefore not always a worst-case scenario if Kenya goes deceased. The people will remain, the people always remain when superstructures collapse. For Kenya, only the colonial construct will disappear.
This is nothing to fret. For normal humankind.
But a banditry whose mode is parasitic will always fear the task of real nation building. For that involves real work. Nation building.
Anybody can run through the net to intern what it takes to build nations that work. The organisation and administration. Citizens have gone to work, and reaped the benefit of their sweat. They have not surrendered the proceeds of their industry to scoundrels and shark-rate creditors. They are not exploited like colonial citizens in their own land. So their countries work. For them.
It it not unity which builds a nation. It is how labour is deployed and the accrued profits invested or consumed, to general and popular uplift. A predatory and parasitic Kenya is going nowhere. The majority of her citizens are doomed to squalor and political unrest. That is root core of our existential threat, and one which, verily, will mature into recklessness unless otherwise.
---You know the slogan pwani si Kenya?
Kwani Mount Kenya ni Kenya? Na Rift Valley je!?
As a matter of fact: ask Aden Duale the honest nationalist if he would not rather belong to a greater Somalia with his other kin; and ask DP Ruto if, with his venom at certain tribes, he would not rather be the president of KAMETUSA only! Mchawi Raila na Wajaluozake waende kwao kabisa! Kabisa kabisa!
Countries do fail. They are neither too big nor too small to fail. All through history all sorts have failed. Some mistakes they make, they will fail. Neither is Kenya immune to this. The first and 2nd republics already failed anyway. We could run up to five like (Nigeria or France) before we call it a day. The people they remain anyhow.
But, who expects a washed-out tramp to think that deep!?
Alice Wahome wasn't speaking her mind of course. She just found a paying customer for the day. Sold herself cheap. Well, she knows her going rates!
There is something about Kandara I can't say now. It is a place of very high rates too.
NB:
---'Ha! Lazy Kagia! How much have you amassed!? Look at Ngei and I'
----'Off it, you thief! Not everybody is a born parasite like your ilk, Jomo!'
This is Muranga, and there is Matiba and Rubia. That makes Wahome double-faced.

Uhuru's only arsenal against Ruto is rigging Baba in and or denying Ruto a chance to steal the elections
Uhuru has so deftly locked Ruto out of the machinery. NIS, DPP, DCI... Kinoti is Kanyotu. Haji is Bernard Chunga - the kid of the BBI mzee - no Nobel to see the link. Mutyambai job was Ruto's under 50-50 - he picked "dinded fehicles" guy Kimaiyo and Joe Boinett. Treasury alinyang'anywa. Kiunjuri can't be fired so Agric troubles can be hanged on his neck.
Machinery worked so overtly against Ruto in Kibra and Bomas. Likes of Wahome and Nyoro were locked out by Kibicho. Short-fused Murkomen threw a fit. :)
Watch out for two signs: new BBI twists and Jubilee elections. Uhuru will either impose his lineup or more likely disable Jubilee elections entirely. The status quo works fine for him.

THE GOING RATES OF KANDARA ALICE WAHOME
The juice lies elsewhere.
Incoherent rant full of typos. But you are almost right about Duale in that Ruto has no control over him. Besides wanton spread of his rot to mashinani, parliament toilets and the church, Ruto's sole leverage is the warriors in RV. With his desperation to bag Mt Kenya that is moot. Now he is battling Uhuru on the home ground, in parliament and in Jubilee. He was long kicked out of the machinery and has no means to force party elections. Old Raila knows in the trenches you cannot afford to lose control of the party. 2008 he locked Ruto out of the ODM kitchen. Even Ababu and Nanok sold out in a blink and vindicated Raila wisdom in denying them big posts in ODM. Ruto despite bloody nose from Kibra demands a national rematch - dude needs to learn a few thigs.
-
Robina you're out of your depth. You think 1970s strategies can work now. I mean even 1990s don't work now.
Uhuru has 2020 - to do whatever he wants done - because 2011 is campaign year and 2022 is election year.
Now what can uhuru do - if he wants to continue he need amend the constitution - or hand over to either Ruto or anybody else.
Amending the constitution is no joke. They need to bring the bill like today - start signature collections - go through IEBC verification - and go through counties - go through parliament - then have IEBC organize for referendum - campaign for it - and etc.
As long as constitution remain as it is - Ruto is sleep walking to PORK.
The immediate battle is to wrestle control of Jubilee from Tuju & gang - we shall be see a lot of drama. Uhuru will have to show his hand before march deadline when Jubilee need to hold elections or have a NEC to posphone it.
-
It's funny you say changing katiba is no joke. And so how do you hold elections in Kenya without PORK say-so? He could not wrestle UDM from a mere nobody like Matty ole Kamwaro. Unlike 2012 when he was emerging as kingmaker - he is going for PORK now with the incumbent against him - Ruto need to build a party first. No small fete. Kibra showed demo'd how mean and ruthless the machinery can be. Where Didimus Barasa got manhandled by Arati Simba with impunity.
Of course katiba can be changed. It was overhauled in the 60s - 360° - parliamentary to imperial, federal to central, senate upper house to monocameral. It is only being tweaked back to tried & tested parliamentary. Beauty is only Kikuyu and Kalenjin are opposed. Scratc that - only some Kikuyu and Kalenjin are opposed. Merus and Pokots couldn't be bothered. Non-GEMA of course are lined up and ready. Ruto Kalenjin-Kikuyu 1963- to- 2080 is DOA.
Give BBI 2.0 a singular year with Uhuru machinery and Raila legwork.
No, Pundit, you are out of your depth. MOAS is a leaky abstraction that has expired. It old and stale - nay, it dogmatic - as Ndii economics. Try something new :)
-
Pundit if you ever managed two ideas you would tip over. You're stuck at tribe n clan piechart. In Kibra at least you attempted the Ruto "genius move" of imposing a nondescript footballer. MOAS hio ni analog.
-
You're a joke that I amuse myself with when I am bored. Your political analysis are so pedantic because you're so ignorant.

Professor Pundit who discovered Jamaica. Recently you claimed to "invent" non-GEMA. That comical Vasco da Gama stuff sailing on dug out canoe to "discover" Africa. 😀
Anyway like I said you're a marksman - you shoot pumpkins. I'm the sniper. Ati you were called "Computer" in high school... I feel everything: space, the air, the vibrations, the people, the gravity. I can feel the rotation of the Earth. The heat leaving my body. The blood in my veins. I can feel my brain, the deepest parts of my memory. The pain in my mouth when I had the braces. I can remember the feeling of Mom's hand on my forehead when I ran a fever. I recall stroking the cat she was so soft. A Siamese with blue eyes and a broken tail. I was barely a year old. I remember the taste of baby milk in my mouth. The thousand kisses that I can still feel on my face. Now what is a mere math genius like you?
Your dismal capacity can't see beyond MOAS. That imaginary 40% Luhya in Kibra. :) Now you can't see how Uhuru can act against interests of a few Kikuyu rigged in by Ruto. Raila has the numbers and Uhuru has the machinery. Donge? Your entitled Kikuyus are useless afterall. Once the new reality of parliamentary is unveiled they will just have to pick between their prince and the alien from RV. Good luck.
You're a joke that I amuse myself with when I am bored. Your political analysis are so pedantic because you're so ignorant.

I am more concerned with the Big Picture. As always time is greatest arbiter. You lost the big one in BBI - and now you've turned your disappointment & frustration to me? Crazy, I am not a politician. The next big picture event is Jubilee party elections. Me think BBI has already drank enough water - it can only sink at this point.

The key thing time has settled is Uhurutopia. With many tiny things like Kibra. BBI jury is out - am not sure why I should be frustrated. Wahome is Ruto flowergirl not ODM and she's crying for Uhuru attention.
Ok let's see how Jubilee election goes. Not promising so far I gotta tell you.
-
Guess am upbeat over this Njumbiree Vipindiree fresh release. Pundit you are a real optimist to expect a smooth sailing. Look at the Ruto party track record.
First he stab Chesire in the back to nail Eldoret North. Next he break up Kanu trying to shortchange Raila and Saitoti. He then played Mutula Kilonzo Snr to land Kanu Sec Gen which was a coffin for the party skeleton. Followed by UDM mayhem where he attempted to brazenly evict the entire party lineup. Next he pull mlolongo in PORK backyard. Now the brat is crying treachery :o
William Ruto is no democrat. It either his way or the highway. No prizes for guessing how this latest episode unfolds.

You're learning politics.WSR started with Y2K in 92 and make some money before it was disbanded for becoming a little too powerful.5yrs later he contest Eldoret North against two giants Chesire & Saina..and wins as 30yr old.He joined up with former Y2K and tries to push reforms in kanu and when that he fails he join kirwa & other opposition mps to form UDM in 1999.Moi eventually taps him and is made Ass Min for Home Affairs.With help of blue eyed boys Gideon & Uhuru they pushed out Biwott & Saitoti.Raila was never really part of the big plans..so Uhuru is to be PORK with Giddy as VP and Ruto the power behind.Their youthful exhuberance are crashed by Raila and Kibaki.Narc wins and fall out almost immediately giving Ruto a chance.He quickly takes over as Sec Gen from being Party Director of election (where Ruto learn how to rig party primaries) and start working with Raila.Part ways with Uhuru.ODM is formed.2007 happened and ODM fallout start because Raila didn't appreciate Ruto role.Ruto tries to fish out his UDM ( formed with kirwa in 1999) but Gen Koech get bought by Raila so register URP and the rest is history.URP merges with TNA to form Jubilee
-
Robina you're neophyte politically speaking which why you think technicalities matters they don't..parties, positions, those are nothing...real reliable political support matters.A party can be formed today and it wins elections tomorrow.What matters is having popular support

Point is your boy never won a legitimate contest just plain ukora. Backstabbing, mlolongo, bribery, etc. He has also never fought the status quo ever - not successfully - he rode Moi (02), Raila (07), Kibaki (12) coattails. Now he is faced with his own battle and he is finding it much harder than insulting Raila. Why can't he just forcefully demand things from PORK like he wanted Raila to do with Kibaki under NARA? Instead Matiang'i get his job and he is treated worse than Kibaki treated Raila. Let's see how Jubilee election goes... it easy to hurl insults than act. Uhuru is rehashing Jomo-Moi iron tactics.

Kibra is a good dry run of his "popular support" - aka ukora :) - vs the machinery. He came up short. There is no Kibaki to shield him or ICC to blame - he must face the mean machine.

Uhuru reveals what Ruto has done for Jubilee to remain united
Wednesday April 5 2017
The President used his tour of his home county, Kiambu, to heap unusual praise on the Deputy President.
(https://www.nation.co.ke/image/view/-/3879076/medRes/1608343/-/7wjrdp/-/uk.jpg)
President Uhuru Kenyatta and his deputy William Ruto address residents of Ruaka on a meet the people tour on April 5, 2017. NMG
IN SUMMARY
The President said unlike the Grand Coalition Government which was mired in squabbles, the Deputy President has worked with him with commitment to deliver the Government’s agenda on development that has transformed the lives of Kenyans.
President Kenyatta – who was accompanied by the Deputy President – spoke on Wednesday in Kikuyu town, one of the stops he made during his tour of parts of Kiambu and Nairobi counties to thank residents for registering in large numbers in readiness for the August polls.

Kibra where Raila had to unleash violence is hardly a yardstick otherwise odm has lost nearly all the other by elections.

Which by election has Jubilee specifically Tanga Tanga won? Baringo South his bedroom. Wajir he bought out TWO Raila men - the appellant then the contender. In fact Wajir was a testament of ODM popularity - how do you bribe two guys from the same party if you are so popular? Ugenya of course was ODM affair where everyone worship Raila while mention of Ruto is blasphemy. Emba South Ruto "win" through Wiper. :)
Kibra is where he squarely faced the machinery. He could not run to court despite the hostile environment cause he openly indulged in voter bribery. If it was a proper clean match - no bribes, no goons - Raila would still beat Ruto hands down. I mean look at the lineup of top honchos on Raila team - mobiliser per excellence. Ruto had mere Duale and Barasa or KJ pawns. Kalonzo his new catch supported 3 candidates :D - first he unveil CMB Prezzo, then he endorse FORD K Butichi, then last-minute he back Mariga. Now the joke is back in Uhuru corner. What is Ruto plan in Ukambani again? :)
Sorry I don't see any popular support for Ruto. Je crois que non. The reality is that without the machinery bribes and handouts will not help him.
-
Pundit if Ruto had Sonko and Sakaja in his corner he could easily have swing Kibra. By himself he has no "popular support" outside RV and Kikuyu youth. Babu is still better at it. Sonko of course is the real hustler with cross-ethnic slum appeal. But sadly Uhuru big rungu - MACHINERY - silence Sonko and leave your boy exposed.
-
You're so desperate you think kibra slum that has been under Raila is harbinger of good things for ODM.Ruto has excelled because he is not afraid to try and fail.Ruto got one foot into Nairobi and kibra.Ruto tried Langata and failed before succeeding.Why would Ruto depend on Sonko or Sakaja this soon when he can build his own slum network for the future.Ruto remember went NO in 2010 and lost but those who were a little intelligent than you know he won by demonstrating he could nick 30% of national vote independently.Mama ngina and Uhuru had no problem cutting him a big cheque and 50% of gov.Kibra is big Ruto win because Raila had to pull all stops in a const he has represented..it's like odm giving Ruto a scare in Eldoret North.Obviously expecting objectivity from Robina is like milking a tree.Ruto unlike the rest can sleep and defend Jubilee zones..that had 55% of vote in 2017 but he chooses to take war to Raila & ODM zones..that is the Hallmark of a Smart Politician.Now all your hopes are hinged on Uhuru.When Uhuru says Ruto Tosha what is your plan B as odm.....
-
Lol. So cosmopolitan Kibra is the same as Eldoret North with 90% Kalenjin. So much for objectivity. What Kibra really showed is that Ruto cannot beat the machinery. And that Uhurutopia is a pipedream. It also confirmed Mdvd and Weta are dead wood. Politics is perception and that is why Ruto and his minions mourned the loss for an entire fortnight. The smart unbeatable facade broke.
Kibra was a blunder.

What did Ruto lose in Kibra. He had two options - allow Tuju to give ODM a no-contest or give it a shot. He gave it a shot - and got Raila & ODM brigade so scared - they pulled all stops including violence - and that was just rehearsal.
Ruto wants to play Nairobi politics. He is doing well so far.
For first time Kibra had a real political battle - and Raila impregnable wall of violence & intimidation in the slum was nearly shattered.
The same way Langata was taken from Raila - Kibra will go.
Lol. So cosmopolitan Kibra is the same as Eldoret North with 90% Kalenjin. So much for objectivity. What Kibra really showed is that Ruto cannot beat the machinery. And that Uhurutopia is a pipedream. It also confirmed Mdvd and Weta are dead wood. Politics is perception and that is why Ruto and his minions mourned the loss for an entire fortnight. The smart unbeatable facade broke.

Those are nice wishes Bwana Pundit. Generali sneaked thru NASA divisions. Broken Jubilee cannot deliver Lang'ata, Kibra or the larger Nairobi. Take the lesson - hubris is a bad thing. Ati you won by losing smh.
