Precisely. Uhuru can only cement his legacy if he builds on top of Jubilee's political and economic achievement. How can movement that scored 55% of Kenya votes not be sustainable?
if he destroys Jubilee and jumps around with big 4 - he will achieve nothing. He has 18 months - realistic - he has just this COVID-19 budget to do anything worthwhile. Maybe get the SGR to Malaba and fix the water. The hand over a peaceful country.
All he needed to do is nick the electricity to universal coverage, increase paving of roads to even 30K, and then handover to Ruto a stable country - and his legacy would be so great.
But look at him now - neither loved by Jubilee nor NASA - and universally hated and despised.
And if he takes kenya back to 2007 PEV - he will not be going for retirement - but will be shipped to ICC. PORK Raila will be happy to send him and Ruto to go settle it there again
You nailed it again. The legacy Ouru is chasing is not economic but political. Nobody remembers which president built which road but a political legacy is what goes into the history books. That legacy does not include Ruto's political divisive Kalenjin/Kikuyu alliance which almost brought this country into a civil war and talk of session. The country is not going back to the 2013/2017 politics and Ruto has no other viable options that would be consistent with Ouru's desired legacy of bringing back Luos to the fold.
Ruto being king in kalenjin land should not be in dispute for now. But that's a major climb down from Nationals, regionals to tribal chief. Uhuru allowing Ruto to interfere with 2017 nominations and general elections is what has brought him all that grief. Ruto stock is declining day by day. The man is not bankable.
You're a joke if you think anybody can challenge WSR in Kalenjinland
Pundit as you chase your own tail - Uhuru is chattering chopper for Isaac and crowning Kamar, Poghisio, Gideon to contain Ruto. Once they hang Ruto and anoint Moi Jr - Kalenjin will not be bothered by Ruto personal problems. Oh, wait - has Ruto ordered Isaac and Kamar to pamper Uhuru?
You are being insincire ,whenever people use Thiks road they always mention how greatful they for Kibaki expanding it.
Talking of Mt Kenya and Rift Valley alliance this is o e thing that the world is aware of for Uhuru and Ruto bringing the 2 communities together . Theis could pass as a legacy . Heck even Ocampo in his last interview about Ocampo 6 after 2013 elelections acknowelgded it and went on to say he was impressed that for the first time in many years there was no violence during 2013 elections and this was thanks to Ruto. There was alot of pressure on Ruto on his association with Uhuru and Mt Kenya but he stick to his guns.
Odm and Raila were very sure that RV would not ote for Uhuru they were mistaken in 2022 the same ODmers are saying Mt Kenya wont vote for Uhuru they will have a rude awakening .
Isnt it amazing how many times ODmers have gotten it wrong all those years by 2022 ot will be 15 years of continous failing.
