Yes slowly Ruto will place loyalist in Gok. I see his Maasai moved from Statehouse to become Director of Police Operations. Lagat is now IG Police.
Ruto need to put his loyalist in security forces and have ODM goons on the streets.
It obvious the war with Uhuru Kenyatta is looming and he must prepare. 25th June was a wake up call.
I will tell you the real analysis, Ruto was scared there is no doubt about it and that is normal of a leader responsible for the lives of more than 40 million people.
Now that he crashed Gachaguas makende vilivyo , and he has security sector intact with pastoral elements. Ruto has reorganized himself, I am happy that he brought Raila men into government and I still urge him to have a parallel discussion with Mama Ida she has influence in Luhya region many of you might not know but she has Luhya lineage.
Security iko sawa, come invest in Kenya! Kenya is open for business.
Really?
(1) Never trust the police or military.Do you know Obote and Idi Amin were related?friends?Just because a president appoints the seniors doesn't mean he has loyalty across board.Its the normal across the world which has been proven by historical events.I worked with security people in the past and I hate them,they are liars and very cold people .Did you not see Ruto and uhuru police fighting during bomas presidential announcement 2022?We're some of those security people not engaging alshabab in smuggling?
(2) Remember We have a NEW Kenya under the new constitution whereby we have corrupt governors who buy Mps and senators,Corrupt procurement cartels within government which influence civil servants which means that loyalty within government is not guaranteed because the president doesn't have the monopoly of bribe.If the president or governor promises you a 1BN bribe,a roads contractor can bribe 1BN in return,that means nobody has monopoly of goons.That is even made worse in a multi ethnic security apparatus.
The Kenyan president under new constitution is very weak.He is dealing with foreign brokers,tenderpreneuers,Corrupt security officers,Corrupt parliament opposition and judiciary.In simple terms,it's so stressful to be a president and you have don't full control.
Lastly,Power is temporarily,Once you retire,you don't want people disturbing you.
