museveni showcasing kenya's next president.
take a break from the dance floor to give my pesa nane on the asymmetrical power play in nairobi based grand coalition government where i am told a select number of public servants have taken leave of their official duties and embarked on a brazen, flat out and in most instance subterranean outmaneuvers and in most cases overt brinkmanship.
while the plebeians are congregating in town squares in passion and informed discourses,the sundry hustlers,rabid tribalists, supremacists and power hungry clique are in intense,do or die missions, some unfathomable all in the name of stopping agwambo and preserving the so called political economy of the essential population.
unlike the moi and kenyatta succession where the rogue political animals were driven by the overarching needs for power preservation for purely economic dominance,this season is witnessing a crop of actors that are extremely diligent,dedicated and focused.
a chat with a western diplomat who is on the loop reveals that kenya's far right who are well rooted in the political economy of this nation have invested massively in terms of resources and more so intelligentsia in killing two birds with one stone:stopping the majority of kenyan from their aspiration that us popularly espoused by the cord under the man famously described here in jukwaa as the last revolution standing.
he drew my attention to some comments and implied assertions that jamleck the kamau made in kameme fm radio this morning during a breakfast show which i missed and therefore cant verify, as a pointer of bravado and sense of entitlement informing the rank and file of the kenya's political other.
now to the substance of my post:
first is the latest issue of the publication owned by the man photoed below:
nairobi law monthly which has kamwana on its cover boldly talks of something that kenyan media wont talk about: that the 2013 election was bungled and goes to state why. which is surprising from a publication owned by a man that wins no favour in the top tier of jukwaa's punditry.
now the desperate ruling clique that are determined at stopping agwambo by all means have upped their game such that while playing dirty like preemptive and intimidatory countenances to foreign missions as european union, they also want to appear conventional.
i have in mind....

where we are informed that jubilee coalition is circling cord coalition in what is mean to hoodwink the uninformed that agwambo and his formidable cord are a pariah political formation in east africa's most significant economy.
of course we saw, thanks to the thuita mwangis, the regional states reps falling over each other to congratulate kamwana.and now we are told anytime this coming days, the jubilee government would be signing a pact with the chama cha mapinduzi in tanzania not mentioning the national resistance movement or the richest political party in great lakes which is........
we in odm under cord are watching with amusement at this antics for who has a grasp of matters diplomacy than weta,man stivo and agwambo.
well,kamwana under the tutelage of his uncle george is all set for the big day but as the nairobi law monthly aptly puts it, its a tough road ahead.
