Yes, referendum, will good test tube for GEMA support for Ruto.

If significant GEMA numbers follow Ruto to NO - or not - Ruto would be better prepared for 2022. Otherwise it could be a shocker in 2022 like MaDVD losing in his deputy own polling station :)

So the referendum would be god sent.

Certainly Mt Kenya wont entertain this item on Regions for a lame duck PM only  they would have entertained . They have always seen Raila as a person against them and their interest . With the push of having Kenya be divided into regions it just proves Railas end goal is to wrestle power from them. They will vote against the Constitution and eventually rally with Ruto against Raila in 2022. Then Raila fanatics will be claiming election has been rigged and there is noway Mt Kenya would vote for Ruto .

Point to note after winning the 2005 Referendum in 2005 . Uhuru was isolated by Mt Kenya ,the frustrations ate him up to a position he wanted to quit politics all together . Post BBI referendum he will find himself in that position  again and unfortunately he will be regarded as an outcast in his region .

Yes, it will be difficult to satify both parties, if the stalemate in the senate is anything to go. Whatever gema wants, non-gema don't want. Ruto has to try play the middle ground.

PM if it become reality - Mt Kenya will see it in Visusasa - Entire GEMA mps is about 68 - just 10 more than Kalenjin. In parliament of 350 - hiyo ni kama 20%.The rest of Mps will gang up against Mt Kenya - anytime.
