Perhaps you now speak too soon. Are we taking for granted that this is a final statement from K A N U? Or indeed that Uhuru has the authority to make such a statement? It is William Ruto after all who calls the shots in K A N U and I'm not at all sure that he is willing to submit himself to Uhuru again. The main reason why I liked O D M was my fancy that somehow it would bring the best of Kenya together in one party,the Godanas and Kerrows with the Khamisis and Kalonzos. I still believe it is belief in the capricious nature of one Railla that precludes an ODM crystallisation. That he has a dictatorial streak and is likely to scream 'Tosha' at any one time makes possible allies coy about declaring their intentions, especially given the lack of dialogue and focus from L D P. WHen you think that even Musila and Gumbe are on a different page than Raila, as is Kalonzo, then you see just how difficult it must have been for KANU, for the likes of Kombo and Ngilu to reach a deal with L D P.

I guess I am vindicated. Truth be told the situation in Kenya now is so fluid, any alliances or even party positions not built on serious negotiation and focus will likely come undone. The problem in Kanu is that it is the Rutos, Kerrows ,Oniangos and Godanas who control the brain trust. I can see why people would follow a sagacious old man like Moi,but I cannot for the life of me see why anyone would follow Uhuru. He has neither the political skill, gravitas or intellect to lead a party into government.In fact apart from his appointing a decent Shadow Cabinet, his tenure as Leader Of Official Opposition has been a shameful one.
Perhaps it is for this reason that he wants so badly to remind us that he is the KANU boss.

"The turbulence being witnessed in the Kenyan political scene is fuelled by greed, selfishness, ambition and lack of purpose in leadership.But Kenyans are slowly discovering the fact that their leaders have nothing to offer them. The current political elite like the those who ruled with Moses in the wilderness have to perish in the wilderness. Across Africa, there are leaders who pretend to be leaders but they are not in the real sense." JOHN CHERUIYOT - SundayTimes. Please read the full artical linked below. www.timesnews.co.ke/15jan06/nwsstory/opinion4.html P.S: Adongo, Alex, Emmo, Job, Johns, Kamalet, Miguna, Onyango, Rough Rider, 50 cents and others; I am keenly looking forward to your responses about the unfolding realisation. This transition is certainly a very important turning point. Let us see if we can soberly make anything out of it.

People, I have just visited an older thread I had initiated under the topic Time to DIVORCE Kibaki, which I had started just a week before the Referendum and decided to pull out a few excerpts of interest. Have a look below before I go on to write my current thinking:
"I certainly find it hard to appreciate any justification that the said leaders may use as an excuse for them to keep on remaining in the same government. Many months have now passed and all the public can see is total confusion and lack of conviction amongst their very own leaders who keep on supporting the same hyena in a sheep's skin, and so continue to perpetuate the existence of the publics' miseries with total impunity as we can all see. This lack of resolve on the part of the said leaders is certainly being reflected upon the public and needless to say, acts as a large obstacle for the long overdue removal of the same, and so perpetuate our own destruction which we so much and desperately want to end. The man keeps on abusing us and violently so, and all they could say is that 'he is alright, he is going get better, just give him time to amend his ways and we love him so much that we can't leave him' and so resolutely cannot go against him! How pathetic." --abdulmote- 15/11/2005
In the above pp, by talking of "the hypocritical leaders", I was refering to akina Raila and the rest, who time and again were ready to 'partly' criticise Kibaki, but at the same time "pledge their loyalty" to him, as well as repeat the fact that he is a good president for us!
And check the following response from job:
"If we leave desired reforms solely at the discretion of a future elected President, or in the hands of his lieutenants, again, .....then..........me thinks we'll be more pumbavu than even Kibaki thinks.
I honestly gave this possibility a remote chance previously, but seeing the forces and counter forces playing out, I think it will be a waste of an opportunity not to call for mass action if any meaningful change will ever come." job
And this;
"The psychological resolve of the masses has been challenged, and terrorized, well in advance.
Civilian capital is looming large now that the masses have been pushed against the wall. In a quest for chartering our own destiny, free from unsolicited prescriptions from the Murungis and Kibakis, the State has unleashed its mobilization of terror instruments on the masses to intimidate people.
How will people utilize this popular/civilian capital? Will we use it to force change? Will we squander it to opportunistic politicians? Will we demand for only short term gains or go all the way in defining our future once & for all? Are we going to be subdued to silence? Are we going to be scared and demoralized by the falling of comrades following Shoot-to-kill orders? It is very important to sustain popular pressurization for anything to happen, even seeking mere dialogue.Trying to play too safe each time with the government power barons who understand mass psychology very well can be dangerous sometimes. Even if they employ the use of assassinations, or arrests on flimsy charges, of key cadres of political opposition or organization links to the masses, the people must be ready for what is now too apparent.
The air is now filled with the government's motive as we approach the referendum day. Let's not ask " Oops what happened ?" after November 21st, 2005." --job-Nov 14/2005
And there followed my other response:
"Here I was just trying to state a point. The hypocrisy on the part of our beloved Orange leaders is clear and that cannot be denied. Yet sadly we seem to find ourselves desperate for their representation for want of better leadership! I weep in my heart every time I try to think of it and this is not "ambivalence". But on the contrary, "ambivalence" indeed is embedded in them! Those who know what they must do but only do what is to their own personal interest. Their resolve certainly falls far short of what is expected of them and it will certainly be futile of our hopes were we not to state the obvious. But I can almost detect your fear. The fear of loosing 'the loving husband' although abusive, lest we are left ‘exposed’ and vulnerable to the imaginary harshness of the world out there and that is sad.
But I am not that naive. A vote of 'no confidence' is hardly something we can anticipate from the current crop of politicians. And I mean from any of them. Can't you see, even the ones we depend upon most, go on to endorse time and again the same goon who is persistently destroying us for lack of his leadership skills? Why so, I ask again?
To me, the change we so much are trying to pursue will never come or be realised simply by the change of Constitution. That I am firmly convinced but there you are, we just have to swim along because the tide currently dictates that we should do. I mean look, does this very current Constitution not allow for the vote of no confidence? Would you say that the people of Kenya still have sufficient confidence in their president as we speak?
But as I repeat, that will never be the case and the reason is so obvious! "Ambivalence" you nicely put it! Yes! And it makes me angry and frustrated just at the thought of it. WHY, I ask? Why should the Orange team we are dedicated in supporting for our cause keep on remaining ambivalent in their pose while we say nothing about it and so accept it by implication? Why should our Amollo keep on endorsing Kibaki yet we categorically know that it is through Kibaki that we find our frustrations? Why can't he, for once, come out clean and decide to go all the way in lodging a fight against the status quo and then see if the led will follow suit behind him?
You see as things stand, I see no reason to be cheerful about any progress that we may achieve should the NO vote win. Yet I am also very concerned about the dangers of the YES vote if it ever wins. Did you say "ambivalence"? The word now seems to reverberate in my mind. Which way should I go that I may be assured of my hopes? But even with an attempt to deceive myself by choosing the 'obvious', the route is simply not reassuring.
Why am I doing this at such a time, you may ask.
Believe job, I am not as insensitive to our genuine and common desires as one would like to think. The passion of Kenya’s pursuit towards its wellbeing is certainly and deeply embedded in my soul. Like many others and perhaps just like yourself, I cannot wait for the day when we as Kenyans can all stand up proud knowing we are headed in the right direction like a nation of civilised people should do. But again in that desire I fear most not be led astray by my own short sightedness and that is where the trick lies.
Can you imagine what it is costing Kenyans when there is "ambivalence" within the minds of our leaders? Specifically so to speak, why can't Raila and his likes, stand up for once and make an open declaration of war against the enemy of the state and then see how long it shall take to clean the slate? On the other hand, ain't his "ambivalence" a sign of hypocrisy which is again potentially duplicated all the way down to the last man, and so directly helps to maintain the status quo? How can we painfully carry on criticising Kibaki and his government on daily bases, yet the leadership that we look up for support and sharing of the common goal does not share our concerns and is indeed contradicting our very thoughts? Huh? Would you call that prudent strategy on our part?
Noh! The constitution will not mean anything as such as far as I am concerned. For God's sake, we cannot even make use of the desperate and rare measures included in the current shallow one!
But I am indeed convinced that it will all come down to the way all the Kenyans think! And then only would we be able to call them to account for their acts. But that can only be achieved when we shall be courageous enough and be ready to criticise our own individual weaknesses of thought. That state of affairs will be achieved when we shall be ready to call a spade a spade and be willing to detach ourselves from our 'beloved' enemies! Like the abused wife, we must be soberly ready to divorce the man we keep deceiving ourselves with, that given time he will change although he repeats knocking our minds 'black and blue' on each and everyday that passes.
But that day will start to take shape only through you and me as we speak! It requires to be started and declared by ordinary people of thought who can scratch their skin and know that they are awake and aware of their surrounding." --abdulmote
And again, read the next important piece...:
"When a leader is born, one is certainly being created to fill in the vacuum which has been established out of the people’s wants, most probably infused with a sense of desperation in their circumstances. That observation I have no problem of accepting. And when the led grow and become euphoric and "saturated with revolt" towards their endeavour, their vision becomes sometimes naively engulfed with expectations perhaps even unrealistic, which they may have so much faith in being delivered, to an extent of being ready to ‘blindly’ follow their leader who may be preparing them in disguise only for another slaughter to come!
But then one may wonder; what should we do in "the absense of a better alternative"? Should we grow and enhance our suspicion up to a point of rejecting everything and everyone even when we can see no other alternative in existence like your proverbial “pebble”?
I say not necessarily so. You see, leaders are creatures who grow and get nurtured by the led. And as they grow to become what they are, they tend to acquire qualities which have a great deal to do with what they have been fed by the led, by the society and partly by nature. At the same time and during this process of the leadership growth, the potential leader learns to adjust and take advantage of what is being offered to him/her, so much so in pursuit of one’s satisfaction, result of which is simply unpredictable and its secondary effect can be anything; either good or bad for the led!
Having said that, a ‘good’ leader is not entirely like a ‘runaway train’ which lacks direction of purpose and is not simply ‘addicted’ to amassing power or wealth as his sole vision and occupation. Weak as the led may find themselves to be, their ‘good’ leader will inevitably be a person who constantly and consistently tries to read the mood and the ‘nudging’ of the led, that he may find himself in reasonable harmony with his people and so continue to enjoy their critical support for his sustenance of status which may be his primary objective.
What follows out of this then is that the led, be they a small fraction of their composition, must be able to initiate a ‘secondary front’ with it's sole purpose being to try and utilise the influence of directing and ‘nudging’ the leader, and so fulfill the role of 'feeding' and 'nurturing' their leader that he may develop to a good degree, to become the type of leader they expect him and want him to be!
Simply put, the led have to lead the leader! They have to remain vigilant in their endeavour and so be ready to call their leader to account for his ‘misdeeds’ and as a result help themselves to create a leader who will properly and effectively lead them to their eventual objective!
But failure or shying away from such a critical and noble obligation upon the led brother, is to naively, “foolishly” and “blindly” accept to be led to our own slaughter and eventual destruction, and that I categorically refuse to do irrespective of otherwise insignificant consequencies.

here is another piece I could not resist to re-visit:
Quote: Originally posted by abdulmote on 29/08/2005 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I say bravo to all those voices of reason who are up and against this heinous draft which is proposed to be our constitution. Indeed the small part which is the result of usurpation of democratic powers honestly given by the innocent public, renders the whole document as vile and an abuse of the people's generosity and trust. It thus follows that this process MUST BE STOPPED at all costs in its tracks, for to allow it to thrive on the people's naivety, is to perpetuate our own destruction!
And whilst some have initiated legal proceedings towards that effort, the courts should have treated this case as a matter of urgency and of utmost public interests and concern, and therefore should not have prolonged the agony that we have to endure.
In this regard, I find it as naivety of the highest order, to proceed with the direction towards the referendum, because to do so would be to assume legitimacy of the process, by allowing the draft to be decided upon, as if it had been created legally and honestly so!
In saying that, I strongly believe that it is the people's absolute and democratic right, to strongly protest and refuse to be dictated upon, especially where and when their fundamental rights are being abused and trumped upon!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And have a look at this:-
Quote: Originally posted by abdulmote on 29/08/2005 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(In responding to (some) observations given on the above), I have no doubt that there will never be a desirable atmosphere as we would have wished, which will facilitate the ideal climate for creating the just constitution. Rather, it falls upon those who can figure out the way forward, with honesty and true dedication, to fight it out with the backing of the innocent and courageous citizen who have an absolute ability to win in this uncompromisable task.
Just imagine this; if the NARC government which was voted in with such a huge and popular mandate has become what it has become in its betrayal of the people's trust, what makes you think that there may be others who will simply remain honest and true to their word for the lifetime of their positions and status?
On the other hand, it falls upon those who are in unshakeable position of demanding for true transparency, accountability and justice, to vigorously fight on behalf of the people, and with the support of the people, till there builds enough momentum to be able to realise what the people trully deserve and want.
And if the righteous should fail to fullfill their God given mandate, then their passiveness and idleness of their minds, will only be a positive effort towards perpetuation of our own collective destruction!
But what is more important than all of the above, is to be alert and aware of the timing and promptness so required, to iniate that fight, lest any delays serve to enhance and strengthen the abilities of the people's enemies! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And now think on what is happening.

One of the remarkable observations I seem to have realised through the above analysis, is the fact that the corresponding reaction amongst the 'many sober' political observers who are also witnesses of the events unfolding, is an incredibly deafening silence! To be honest, I always feel hurt and sad when I can clearly see the inherent omnipresent, potential and actual hypocrisy in alarmingly vast numbers of our politicians as well as political activists!
How then, I ask myself repeatedly, are we ever going to free our beloved mother nation from the shackles of self-inflicted miseries with such an attitude! How?
The following passage is what I had to say in expression of my bitterness written two three days after the Referendum, please bare with me and read it:
"Constitution or no Constitution, I cannot imagine in this day and era that an individual can get away with something like this with people's eyes wide open and everyone fully awake! And here we are thinking that we have leaders capable of guiding our great nation.
What Kíbaki has done is certainly hypocritical and absolute betrayal of trust he was given by the people who voted him in 2002. He cannot and should not be allowed to rub salt into the wounds of poor wananchi for his own selfish, selfish and selfishly cruel agendas. How can a president be allowed to behave in a manner so domineering to the whole nation of 32 million people at his whim and simply get away with it, because 'it is his right' to do so? Is it also 'our right' to be treated so?
But my sadness is made even worse when I see that our front liners are nothing but selfish wimps just as well! Some like Balala have already began reminding the President of the need to consult with Orange faction before constituting another Cabinet! OK, some are of the opinion that the Oranginas and Kíbaki have to 'talk'. But I say not through such a suggestion, they don't!
Fact is Kíbaki can never and should never be trusted to deliver us from the miseries of this Constitution. Fact is Kíbaki has already demonstrated how 'honest' he is to the nation and how capable he is in 'keeping' his word. Fact is, it is simply foolishness of the highest order to keep on deceiving ourselves that his leadership will do what it was originally mandated to do by the people of this great nation given time!
If that be the case then, for how long should we keep on waiting before we start demanding for what is the people's right as expressed in their will? For how long should the people keep on 'pampering' the president, only so that they can get him to 'reward' them with what they have always ‘desperately deserved’ as if this country is his own personal property? What mistake did we do to deserve such a pathetic and draconian treatment whilst others are confronting the twenty first century in positive hopes and confidence?
I say it is about time that Kenyans should start demanding for what is their right and promptly so! I say it is about time that the public must exert pressure upon ALL OUR POLITICIANS that they should act as realistically and as soberly expected of them! Gone should be the days when all we can do is just sit and watch like spectators as events critically affecting our lives unfold and as dictated to by some selfish cartels for their own selfish and public hurting desires! And if this opportunity which has once again united the nation is allowed to slip once more, then I can tell you people, it will be such a looong time before Kenyans get to know what true democracy, accountability and deserving prosperity really means and our lives will remain only but a dream that will never be realised.
I say say it, and say it loudly that they may hear!"
« Last Edit: Nov 25, 2005, 3:46am by abdulmote »
Pole reader for having to repeat myself so frequently. Fact is I have not yet been able to see any true and genuine momentum building up, absolutely honestly and truly, genuinely and enthusiastically, towards the fight for what is the right of the people, if I were to change my perceptions and thinking at all!
The dotted honest criticisms such as given by Cheruiyot seems hardly enough to be noticed in the dark and heavy clouds of corruption covering the nation! Thinking about the minds of Kenyans, one can almost feel the blanket of selfishness and greed engulfing the whole nation whilst restricting any chance of genuine change.
Nine times out of ten, such a conduct wrapping the masses is influenced by tribalism but ironically only just as a cover and excuse! And the tenth one is fuelled by various other possible reasons motivated by outright personal greed. I say tribalism is hereby used only as "a cover and excuse", appropriately so, since the actual gains are simply and specifically only for one's own selfish greed, and certainly not meant to benefit the collective good of 'the tribe' at all!

Halleluyyah! Almost two months have already gone by since the Referendum, yet Kenyans are yet to have any inkling as to how the Constitutional swap is going to be handled if it is ever going to be. It feels as if the whole nation is held to ransom and there is absolutely nothing anyone can do to change the extremely slow pace and unclear path Kibaki has chosen to guide this nation through, be it illegitimately so! Every day that I wake up and ask myself about the developments on the ground, I cringe with anger at the realisation that perhaps what Lucy had said of us was true, that some are just as "blind mice"! If you ask me, I am also led to think that this is precisely why Kibaki thinks of many of us as "wapumbavu"! In other words, people who are so naive and stupid, that they do not have a clue as to how much and what is happening in their own surroundings!
And if you dare in desperation, please do not ask me "what do you think anyone should be doing right now regarding the same"? Because the answer to that is simple and I may not know otherwise. What I do know about this matter is that someone ought to be doing some thing about it and not just let the scam-bag dissolve the people's 'topmost' desire with the hope that it will eventually fizzle out and occupy the backseat of our priorities.
But one might suggest and observe that 'something' is actually being done to keep the momentum constant.
Just as I finish punching the last word of the above statement, I can almost feel the words, like a pile of dung falling flat on my face! Simply put, I feel ashamed at the suggested observation.
But come to think of it, I fully appreciate the status of things constitutional affecting each and every Kenyan's life right now. Perhaps to remove the vagueness of what I am trying to state here, I am of the opinion that as Kenyans, we are indeed getting what we deserve!
And again, here I am not trying to 'endorse' the gains made by bananiacs in terms of the Referendum. Rather I am convinced that the whole nation of some or over ten million souls contributed towards our current position regarding the same, which is without any doubt in my opinion, "scandalous" and foolish a direction for any of us to have taken irrespective of the political divide!
I mean first of all we had the Referendum thing. An exercise which I can categorically tell you that should never have taken place given the circumstances, and that for the benefit of the whole nation!
What I am trying to state here is that as a nation, it appears as if we were all swallowed by a momentary blindness in our minds, without clearly and soberly being able to appreciate the then potential consequences of our acts! With unfounded zealousness and directionless passion, we all had embarked on a journey to 'defeat' one another, or so we thought, without fully understanding the reasons or desires behind the same! Selfishness and short-sightedness was the guiding principle then!
How come, you ask?
First of all we have to appreciate that, as months progressed and the time neared towards the proposed Referendum, in all probability we all had known who was going to win the vote. But that in itself was not all. We all had known in fact that the proposed document was corruptly put together, and that it was severely marred by controversies which effectively and simply rendered it useless and unworthy of our while!
I am talking of the costs incurred here ladies and gentlemen. Fifteen years, over ten billion of Kenyan shillings, emotional and psychological pain, topped up with a considerable number of innocent lives lost! And all for an eventual defeat plus a possibility of going back to the drawing boards' would you say?
And if not, what was it? What was the purpose of the whole exercise if we had known it was going to fail anyway?
You know what, I can only tell that we all had been conned. Conned in fact by both sides of our political divide! And we all cheered and encouraged the game. And now we must all share the 'rewards'!
more later.

"Fifteen years, over ten billion of Kenyan shillings, emotional and psychological pain, topped up with a considerable number of innocent lives lost! And all for an eventual defeat plus a possibility of going back to the drawing boards' would you say?
And if not, what was it? What was the purpose of the whole exercise if we had known it was going to fail anyway?"
This was a really simple question but which again was being brushed aside as if it was a simple nonsense not worthy of any attention in the way it was answered!
The bananiacs excuse of wanting to go ahead with it, was that "the country had been going through the turmoil of the Referendum for too long now". That Kenyans needed to have a break they deserve, by getting over and done with the Referendum and the Constitutional tension, and get back to the business of "nation building"!
Wow! Just like that! Cast your vote, declare the winner or the looser for that matter, and get on with it as if nothing ever happened! Simple!
And the Oranginas?
They were very optimistic with a win. All indications were that the nation will over whelmingly vote 'NO'! "Rejecting this Wako mongrel", we were told. And Yes, that was true.
But what we were NOT told, were the specific gains if any, that were going to be realised after the envisaged victory. Oh yes I do understand that victory was important in 'defeating' "the mongrel", but to me that is the whole point; If we knew then that by defeating the Draft it meant that there will have to be another Constitutional Review after the exercise, why then not stop the same before and without the additional costs attached to the Referendum, and take it back to the "drawing boards" for the necessary 'ironing out' as was going to be the case anyway?
Or is it that the 'victory' desperately needed would have provided the Oranginas with that rare opportunity of turning the tables against Kibaki and so 'hold him to ransom'? Amazing!
Soon the public was to find themselves betrayed and conned once again. As the dust is beginning to settle, there we can see the intensification of the scramble to make 'good use' of the opportunities that have been created for their own selfish and greedy gains. And once again, the people find themselves and their priorities to have been pushed to the back seat, as the politicians assume their 'rightful positions' and indulge in their newly acquired privilages!

That all the leaders of various political parties have lately been busy declaring their interest in the presidential throne is not a secret. All of a sudden everything else has been forgotten and nothing seems to be more important. But what strikes me as significant, is the timing of the "scramble", right at the heels of the Referendum! It is certainly inevitable that one can only reasonably conclude that these fellows were trying to maximise the gains achieved behind the popular support the Oranginas enjoyed behind the Referendum vote. Simply put, in my opinion they were trying to 'harvest' their fruits having 'won' the Ref.! Frequently and as events unfold, I go on to ask myself; was there really a 'win' worth celebrating in such a manner? Or is that behaviour a reflection of their lack of confidence in pursuing such an interest without hiding behind the 'popular cover' of the Referendum win? But what worries me and perhaps various others, is the fact that Kenyans as a whole appear to be already too busy in assuming a stand behind one of the said goons or another, and so readily 'forget' as it were about the Constitution which had occupied our hearts and minds for so many years just gone by. Busy is everyone and pathetically analysing who is doing what and why, as if everyone gets such a 'high' playing a 'political pundit' of some sort upon our 'magnificent' politicians! Yak! What happened to what is very important to our lives? Are we really pressing for what we should actually be? But you know what? today I find relief in the knowledge that 'someone' is actually doing something: www.eastandard.net/hm_news/news.php?articleid=35342 And whilst it was my sincere desire that the ODM should have been rightfully at the forefront of similar and such initiatives, I can now only call upon the seemingly 'busy' ODM's leadership, to start strategising along the same directions, and or at least throw their support behind such movements which are willing to steer us through our never ending quagmire of hypocrisies!
