I passed by Anniversary Towers on U/Way at about 1600H and all I saw was bored journalists and some teargas remnants in the air

Pass there a little earlier on Friday.

The demo failed spectacularly. We are moving to election full steam. Only 3 weeks remain.

Algurair and Morpho were the only hurdles for me and IEBC have navigated the nasa banana peels with some admirable dexterity. The last refuge for NASA is maybe to physical block elections

Except that we have to send innocent commissioners home with 200M golden handshake and replace them with exactly another crop of kenyans.

NASA had no endgame.Obviously that was huge mistake which is why Chiloba should stay as much as he wants. We should not waste another 200m on people who are innocent.

You also predicted that the Supreme Court would throw out the petition, do you recall?

[RV Pundit]

Of course. Unlike you I get it wrong so rarely you remember it all.

I passed by at about 0800H on my way to Hurlingham when we ran into Uhunye's b****s on State House Rd.

Friday ,I'm not sure my itinerary will allow it

Does a protest need to have hoardes of baying public to become a protest?   There used to be a one man anti Iraq war protester outside Westminster until the last British soldier left Iraq.   

It is widely known that NASA are actively protesting against the thieving bastards at the JEBC.

If I understand these folks right, they want NASA to take part in the repeat of an election without making demands on IEBC.  Not even an audit of what went wrong last time.  The Westerners are convinced the Kenyan does not deserve anything of the sort and want to get back to business as usual.

If I were NASA I would officially pull out, that way it becomes more or less official that Kenya is now a dictatorship.  Participating in anything less than a transparent and verifiable election merely provides a veneer of legitimacy for autocrats. 

Of course the jubilant would go ahead with the election and swear himself in.  However with NASA in, he would still do the same thing, while claiming some sort of mandate in a "free and fair" election.

Precisely.......you must deny them legitimacy and pretense of democratic free and fair elections.  For many years we have been blaming the victim, Kenya voter for voting for impunistas while all along the impunistas have been imposing themselves on Kenyan voter.   No need to take part, waste time and money on a pre determined contest.
