RAILA THE CLEANSER.


Have you ever thought what would happen to Raila if he won the presidential elections ?

Do you think he would still maintain his relevance after the end of his tenure ?

Will people be still thinking about him as the best option to save us from socio-economic and political oppression ?


That's what we all need to ask ourselves. It seems like Baba will always chose to lose electrons and then gain later after the government has been formed.


If he truly wanted to be the president,then the 2007 general elections were meant for him . We all admit that Raila won fair and square .


Instead of focusing on winning, he focuses on political cleansing.

When Raila shakes your hand , your political star will shine again. 

With just a shake of a hand, he can change your fortune.

Did you see how former president Uhuru Kenyatta was welcomed in Kisumu after the much maligned 2018 handshake ? Uhuru' was like a local in the area to the extent of joking with the natives to give him a lady to marry.


It came at a time when the country was clamouring for the resignation of the president. Protests were everywhere and innocent lives were lost and properties destroyed.


Uhuru's harshest critics became his strongest supporters.


This was thanks to Raila's handshake. The moment he joined the government, protests lost meaning.


Today I saw a clip of president Ruto being welcomed in Mombasa and I was shocked. This is a region that has been hostile to Ruto in the last one year.

The residents of Mombasa have always been part of protests but today was different.

The nomination of Hassan Joho into the cabinet was due to the blessings of Raila Odinga who was outside the country. Joho has been loyal to ODM since 2007 and during the campaign for Raila's presidential bid, he was bashing Ruto anytime he got the chance.

Ruto nominating him is a sign of handshake with Baba as both Joho and Oparanya are ODM Deputy Party Leaders.


Even the intensity of the protests has gone down since Tinga showed signs of negotiating with the government. 

Over the coming weeks, Ruto will visit some areas that are perceived to be hostile towards him and shall get a grand reception due to Baba's handshake.


He has been cleansing governments since the days of Moi and what is happening now is not new.

               RAILA AND CURSE OF OPPOSITION IN KENYA. There is this one country in the world where no matter how people vote, they will never have an opposition leader. This literally means that the cries and pleas of the minority will have no one to articulate them to the ruling government. That country is..... Oooh, did I just hear you say Kenya ? That's right, the country is Kenya. Since gaining independence in 1963 , the country has never had a serious opposition despite having strong "opposition leaders" over the years. We can only have notable mentions like the Late Martin Shikuku and Keneth Matiba. It's either because of the totalitarian regime or to others reasons only known to the leaders. The  constitution spells out clearly that after the general election, the runners up of the presidential seat shall form the opposition which then will help citizens in keeping the government in check. This has never been the case here. The only time we can feel like the o

 WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF GEN ZS. Yesterday's protests sent out warnings to the tribal kingpins who have been using tribes as a way to lead that come 2027 things will be different. And today was also  the same in Mombasa.  Let's wait for tomorrow where the ''finals'' will be held in Kisumu. The protests were led by the '' Young Kavirondo Tax Payers Association ''  popularly known as  Gen Zs who went out on the streets to protest against the proposed finance bill. This pushed the government to the extent of revising the bill or rather removing the decoy in the form of 16% VAT on bread What I found inspiring about this is that social media plays a big role in the mobilisation of youths. This is a different generation of people who according to them, they know their rights. The worst is to come in 2032 when the Alphas and the Gen Zs come together to create a very courageous force that cannot be bribed with fifty bob. The protests were a blessing to B

 WHY ODM IS JOINING RUTO TO SURVIVE. First, ODM was a national party, with 8 tribal representatives from 8 now scrapped provinces. At coast, it was Najib Balala, now coast is gone, it doesn't belong to ODM. In central, it was Joseph Nyaga, central nologer thinks ODM. In Eastern, it was Charity Ngilu. Eastern went away with Kalonzo. In western, it was Mudavadi, now in government, and western is gone with Ruto. In rift valley, it was Ruto, now president. Gone forever. In Nairobi and Nyanza, Raila roared. He never roars in Nairobi. Even his Nyanza turf is now a shell of the past.  ODM has remained a luo party, and not all Luos ascribe to ODM. That's one reason ODM must join Ruto to survive. And since Ruto helped create ODM, Ruto will finish ODM completely.  ODM has been surviving and reinventing itself through demonstrations. It's leader, Raila Odinga, is the sole force to sermon demonstrations, and religiously, both educated and uneducated, heeds his call and comes ou
