...Raila must have a read an article by a CNN political analyst, Martin Rowland, that Obama should go gangsta and do appointments on his own using his executive authority without getting into endless and fruitless discussions with GOP. This is what he said: "He has watched Republicans block many of his appointments, and now he says he made it clear to them that he will "consider" making some when the U.S. Senate goes into recess". That's going gangsta...
...Raila knew that Kibaki will not buy his idea if he approached him on this sackings. He decided to go gangsta...and man things aint playing his way.

The guy must have known 'house on the hill' will almost 80% say we were not consulted...
Im i the only one who can read RAO's face?.. it was evident as he addressed the media on the suspensions, he was up to a something and quite obvious, a lie on his face, as well when he said he had consulted the Prezzy..
He then goes for a game of Football.. as if to sit and wait and watch Valentines Drama unroll...LOL!!

RO was handed a shovel by baba Jimmy and is doing a good job digging his own grave. The west can't help him much.

Am shocked!!!

Guys your input on this matter shows that either you dont really care on fight against corruption or you just burrying yr heads in the sand.

My opinion is that RAO aint done anything wrong by suspending his JUNIORS (RUTO and ONGERI) and this decision should stand.
After all he just 'suspended' and not 'sacked' them!

RAO's action has won confidence from Kenyans with high integrity and not those stone throwing road-blockers for hire who go screaming that RAO is targeting there community, yet they sleep hungry with no help from these MBUTAS they are actively defending.............

RAO will live to regret losing the populous R Valley voting block so recklessly!

@gathinga, Did RAO have to loose the voting block really?
Wasn't it easier to condone corruption, facilitate a few more scandals, and benefit in the midst of it all? Or perhaps just do nothing?

Doing the difficult thing is more often the right; but judging by our reactions (including Mutahi Ngunyi), we interprete laissez-faire as deftness. Little wonder then that Kiraitu had to fete Moi and praise his leadership many years later.

in my honest opinion Mutahi is tired of thinking for us, and has resolved to telling us spicey juicey tales.

and i also note the paradigm shift.. its no longer about tribal chiefs.. its all about splitting the communities into chieftains then everybody in contention goes in to find out what he can salvage.
thats why every time Kalonzo innocently mentions KKK he's met with opposite but unequal reaction, esp from ODM.

With this saga,corruption is finally enshrined in the constitution of Kenya. We now need a great composer to add a 4th stanza in the national anthem extolling the virtues of corruption:

@ecstacy, I've quite some respect for you. But you must answer honsetly, do you really see it as possible for RAO to be your president?

In 2007, both my parents voted for Kibaki, and most close to me really feared that RAO can be their leader. But don't you see this is the problem?
In Rwanda, how can a Tutsi be our leader?
In Germany, how can a German Jew be our leader?
In America, how can a black man be president?
In Ireland, how can a Protestant be president?


When we realise that most men are really not that much better than the next, then none has a greater claim to leadership, and it only boils down to their actions.

And intentions/motives are cryptic like the biblical "wolf in sheep's clothing". So we judge by what they bring forth alone!

Am trying to put two and two together. Something is not adding up. A report has been released. You want to kill the report. How do you do it? You also know kenyans forget very fast. You also know Kenyans cannot read reports and they concentrate more on the 'Infighting'. See, there is no post on the G4S heist last week although alot of money disappeared. We have all been forced to spectate and give our opinions. I hear Caroli was cleared by PWC!

Take this as a notice to invest without fear. Afterall, I hear Kenya is to host a peace conference soon as per news over lunch hour.
