RAILA HAS DONE ENOUGH.


There was uproar in the country when Raila Odinga proposed that the country needed dialogue to solve the issues that pushed youths into the streets.

This prompted Gen Zs to label him Selfish and some dirty names.

What I want to tell them is that there has never been a politician in history of Kenya who sacrificed his personal interests for the well being of Kenya. 

It's funny how kids born seven years after Saba Saba think that they can be freedom fighters.


On Raila's side, he has demonstrated his selflessness in many ways. 

In 2002, he joined Kibaki in ensuring that the Moi regime came to an end . After NARC won the election, it's claimed that Kibaki wanted to appoint Raila as his deputy instead of Kijana Wamalwa. Kibaki felt that Tinga had played a big role in his victory.

Raila refused the offer

In 2008 , we all know who won the elections. The country was then plunged into a political crisis and lives were lost. If Raila had listened to the advice of his hardliners, we would be saying otherwise. He decided to sign the Power sharing agreement that helped bring stability and during the highly volatile period.


Even the handshake with Uhuru Kenyatta stabilized the country and people were able to do business without political cuffs. 


In history of Kenyan politics, there has never been a politician that has promoted gender equality like Raila. 

He has supported women in their elective bids. 

He even chose Martha Karua as his running mate despite having other options.

In as much as he has been disappointing some people, let's not forget his contributions for the greater good of the nation.

Gen Zs are being incited by the social media praises that they are getting, they should be reminded that if the government shuts the internet, the noise they're making will be easily forgotten.

Threatening Jakom with "salamu" will not change anything. Electoral process in Kenya has never been credible and this is what we should be fighting for especially when IEBC is going to recruit new commissioners.

Let's learn when to retreat and when to attack.

BABU IS MAKING A BIG MISTAKE. Over the past one week, President Ruto has been traversing through the Nyanza region 'launching projects' and also attending the homecoming ceremonies of the ODM Cabinet Secretaries from the region. He has enjoyed massive suppport from the hostile ground and he even could not believe when he saw how the KDF or rather Kondele Defence Force welcomed him in the famous Kondele Roundabout. This shows how the game of politics is . There are no permanent enemies but rather differences of personal interests. Now , there was one character that boycotted the rallies enirely. Hon. Babu Owino decided to stay in Nairobi and support the ever changing Kalonzo Musyoka. In my opinion, Babu miscalculated .   It would have been GOOD for Babu Owino if he attended the homecoming ceremonies of the Luo Mps in Nyanza. Why ? Charity begins at home. He must consolidate home first before he tries to consolidate the nation. He should at least pretend to be with Baba until th...

  RAILA HAS DESTROYED GACHAGUA. Why is it that when Baba Raila Odinga 'visits' any government, it is the deputy presidents that suffer the most? Does Raila replace them? Does he take away their positions and importance? Or do presidents feel secure with Raila by their side, hence feel no need for their deputies? Or are the deputies using the same old tactic of playing the victim to win sympathy from Kenyans? Which is which? Because Rigathi Gachagua is now claiming that he has been through worse than the then deputy president William Ruto, who is now his boss? What does Raila do to these regimes ? Watching the interview where the Dp lamented that he is being mistreated by Ruto's close allies, I really felt bad for him. H e further emphasized that his woes started when Raila entered the government. So what is that thing that Raila does to deputy presidents ? Raila is unique, He comes into government with a battalion of Mps, Meaning any alliance with him the president i...

  What really happened in Endarasha ? Over the last one week Kenya has been through some things that look like Hollywood. The Adani story, the blackout occurrence and then the Endarasha Hillside incident. Today I wanna talk about the Endarasha story. This thing should not be taken lightly as there is more than meets the eye. Now picture this, kids are asleep , and I mean all of them went to bed according to the management.  Fire breaks out in the dormitories and the kids start screaming but no one heard them. Emergency door was allegedly locked from outside hence hindering the escape plan. Remember that this school has watchmen on duty and there's administration at the scene. The first people to arrive at the scene are the politicians. Now ,I think that this is a conspiracy to cover for more damages. Sixteen kids died at the scene while six died later from the burns . The school failed to locate several kids and even goes ahead and stops parents from taking their kids back hom...
