yes last time it was powerful is when it was held by Jomo Kenyatta nephew Dr Mungai;
I think in Moi era it was disbanded.
Kibaki returned it;
Uhuru gave it to Omollo and Eunice
Ruto gave it Duale.
People (Bantus) fear Somalis.
It generally a useless ministry because KDF really report directly to Ruto.
KDF commanders cannot go line up to minister.
Minister is useless - and in Moi era it didnt exist.
Should be scrapped if not for const that require minister of defence to interface with parliament.
Definitely Somalis in security sector are causing jitters.
Really Abdi Pundit? The fact is KDF were very uncomfortable with him from mis advising Ruto to bring them out of barracks among other things, Dealing with warias is no simple thing trust Duale to activate al shabaab, Zoomalis can't be trusted,now Rutos girlfriend is CS,Ruto is not thinking properly
