I voted for Babu. I showed you my vote. There’s what I said and what I did.
That's
a ballot you've shown. Your support was clearly Jubilee.
But this is not about my choices but the fact that Luos would never bark at injustices even against their own in this post-handchieth era.
Nah, for me it's about how Kenyans like you think they have no role but to point fingers and complain. Like I said, I said nothing about Ndii. And if you don't know, I'm a huge fan and follower (of Ndii), so poesha boli.
And once again, this is not about the merits of the deal he struck with Uhunye but just how it has dulled their sensitivity to injustice. Buy Babu get Luos free
You can try harder minimizing his point by labeling them opinion
They are an opinion, of course, an interpretation of facts, not a fact—And that's a fact.
That you think all other interpretations are automatically inadmissible doesn't magically make it so.
For example, we all know Uhuru is trying his hardest to steal back his Kikuyu base from Ruto, so all his focus is on that. Raila's priority is that Uhuru sees the BBI through; so he won't say zip. That's pragmatics and makes perfect sense IF he's goal is the sweeping changes he hopes Uhuru will push through. His base supports him because they trust his intentions are of long-term good, short-term sacrifices. No one really expects Raila appointees now. We want to see if we have a new parliamentary system by 2022. THEN we will know if Baba has been played and Uhuru is just being a typical tribalist rather than a tactician, or if things are as simple as Raila no longer minding who gets appointed as you insist is the only way to read this—Quite a simplistic take; as if these people do not have a long history to contextualize their choices in the circumstances. Pole. We are not all so focussed on demonizing Raila at every opportunity to be blind to every other read on things.
Ndii no longer trusts Baba. The Kenyattas are the embodiment of Kenyan political evil (plutocracy) to him; making a deal with them is as good as making a deal with the devil. He is very consistent in that view (unlike you). Ndii has every right to treat deal-making with the Kenyattas as an evil, and is not the only one: Hence his take. But many of us have moved from full apathy post-handshake to wait-and-see BBI, because we see a scarier outcome than brazen plutocracy: Despotism. Indeed, that seems to be the bet Raila and crew have made: Better the plutocrats than the wannabe despot.
