I always thought it was Uhuru - kumbe Raila is killing himself
Just completed reading this story in Taifa Leo....
Ndiyo Nika elewa what is going on.
According to the paper, Uhuru called Raila to State House and explained to him why he wanted Kalonzo to be the running mate.....
(Uhuru had negotiated separately with Kalonzo and handed him the DP position. This was probably based on intelligence reports on the true situation on the ground)
But the Curse of Shiundu Shitawa set in...
Raila vehemently refused to accept Kalonzo. He told Uhuru that kama ni Mkamba, he would prefer Mama Ngilu as the DP, but never Kalonzo...
Son of Jomo must been befuddled!!! "Siasa is not about Urafiki, but interests" ... He must have told the Grandson of Shiundu Shitawa... But the old man totally refused to accept Kalonzo and said "kama mbaya, mbaya"
That is when Uhuru went to plan B.....
And decided to go for either Peter Kenneth or Martha Karua.... And that is where things are stuck.....
So, from the look of things Raila said he didn't want Kalonzo and his at least 2 million votes.....
And prefers either Karua or Kenneth with their 40,000 votes....
Una ona vile watu wana angukanga hesabu??
Incidentally, the time Raila completely refused to accept Kalonzo, is exactly the time Uhuru sent National Assembly Speaker Justin Muturi to join the Ruto camp...
Looks like Uhuru decided to send
emissaries mapema in case kime umana.
With Kalonzo out of the picture, tusidanganyane..... Ruto is taking this thing at 8 am.....
I was wondering why someone like Justin Muturi, a person who fears being in the opposition like a plague, would openly court Ruto. Kama Kuna Shishtem, Justin Muturi as number 3 in power would know it ... Kumbe they already knew that Azimio ime zama....
