...i thought Ringera was smart enough to read the mood of the country and call it quits...

Am so excited to see the rule of law prevail in an emphatic fashion for the first time in a long time. Its high time the executive started to read the mood of its citizen. A president exists to serve his people and not just a small clique.

During the swearing-in ceremony for his first term in office,MK assured us that it will never be 'business as usual'. Sadly,a cursory look at the goings-on show that 'moism' will take time to end. Those of us from the old school still remember the days when Moi would spring some illogical surprises and we would all hail him as a political genius.

Those aspiring to be future presidents should know that the culture of 'mta-do?' will surely have to come to an end. At least we now know that the presidents word or action will not be final if not executed within the law.

Cant help to sympathize with 'kalooser' for thinking that anything that the executive does goes. If he continues with that dangerous mind-set,he should forget 2012. Kiunjuri could even be said to be wiser than him.

To all the Mpigs who voted against the bill......SHAME ON YOU!.

Am also offended to note that the sports minister voted against the bill......No wonder she cant challenge RAO on Hey as the national soccer team rapidly goes to the dogs.



WOULD RATHER DIE FIGHTING 4 MY RIGHTS THAN LIVE FOREVER WITHOUT ANY RIGHTS

i presume the era of the 'big fish' is come to an end....

sorry,the big fish will now face the law just like the small ones....

you've heard me..

@Mpenzi

Whats the legal position and what happens after this. I listened to the lawyers arguments on the floor of the house and got more confused. Either the lawyers dont know the law or our laws are not clear. Every lawyer seemed correct to me.


Accountants are not boring people. They just get excited about boring things

@mtaalam

It is true the MPs or say parliament does not have powers to get Ringera out of the office even with their vote,Kibaki can not ignore their move. Even with all the powers,he can force Ringera down their throats but they can refuse to pass the KACC budget until the President does something. Now,how would KACC operate without a budget an the money can not be released from the Treasury unless they want to plunge us into deeper mess than 2007 if they force the budget down the MPs throats too. And that story by Beth Mugo that they have to support the president so they do not humiliate him? The only reason being - other countries think we are having elections next month or the other month bla bla..... it was so unconvincing...

My thinking is,Parliament can hold the budget as the bait to have what they want done. No wonder the motion to have the budget passed was postponed coz it was not going to go through for sure. Kibaki needs the parliament more than the parliament needs him. Remember,his own Ministers were also against his act. This is not the only issue he will need support from parliament.. he wont afford to burn bridges to have this go through. For once,the MPigs were HONORABLES yesterday!

But i could be wrong/misinformed and stand to be collected..

Experience is what you get when you don't get what you want.
