Uhuru and his sidekick, Samoei, can easily do it this way: launch a serious fight on corruption. Seriously serious.
True, neither of the pair is without blemish. But Uhuru gets a lot of slack on the grounds that Daddy was the bad guy, and Jnr is just a kind of "fortunate victim"; and Ruto can be more forthcoming, as in his belated confession about a certain hotel. These guys are already loaded. And
they have won their battle against neo-colonial imperialists who are bent on keeping African down, the better to exploit him and his natural resources their cases with the ICC are pretty much over. These two could, if they had it in them, herald the country into the sort of era Kenyans hoped for when they decided that 24 years of rear-end
tarimbo was a bit much and went for the
tosha-ed fellow. Whose wife turned out to be a bit too much ... but that's not relevant right now.
The opposition too has a chance: Other than taking care of the little matter of getting supporters to register and to show up to vote, CORD et al to offer a serious alternative for better governance, i.e. more than "we are not them". A bit of internal democracy, a bit of "
governor, by all means enjoy the VIP life; but how about a little something to get even water into the great referral hospital...". OKOA LOCAL, and then OKOA KENYA. There's a parable, or a fable, or a something that highlights this. In
The Good Book.
Kenya needs just two to four serious people----and that includes sobriety in the usual sense---in order to really get going. Nothing terribly complicated about it. But this current den of thieves. All the mix-and-match scoundrels. It's hard to see them getting the country any place.
