Kuria has only disagreed with the president on matters of the handshake only. But in matters development I know they are together. That is called democracy. Kuria has supported many bills brought in by the government to parliament. His vote in parliament is all that matters to the president. The other sideshows outside parliament are just entertainment for us the people.
We all agree that the president is in his final term. It's time for New political realignment. I see that raila is seeking uhurus endorsement which we are yet to hear it directly from him. we wish him all the best.
What would Moi have done if saitoti was moving around the whole country declaring himself the next president and fighting moi even in his bedroom in baringo? Would he have said that it is democracy? Also, every tribe has its leader and fighting the kikuyu leader is fighting the kikuyu nation.
There is a huge difference between the kikuyu leader and the kikuyu presidential candidate. The president is the latter. Kikuyu leadership is shared among wazees or elders. It's extremely difficult to herd kikuyus the same way babu herds wajaluo. Kikuyus as idividuals hold their own personal principles and nobody is supposed to trumple on them and it doesn't matter who you are.
In an elders meeting every man is the same depending on rank(I don't know which word to use but there are certain ranks one has to pass through) we admire and value wealth. But it is not a factor or you cannot use your wealth to step on other elders.
Even Michuki said that Uhuru is the kikuyu leader and anyone who wants to talk to kikuyus should go through him. The leader will show kikuyus which way to go in 2022.
First you should know the statement was directed to non kikuyus. He was not directing kikuyus to follow uhuru.
He(michiki) was also resonating a political opinion which was later adopted by most kikuyus.
If you can remember the "madimoni" saga where uhuru had been pressured to step aside for musalia. According to sources uhuru had succumbed to pressure only to surface later and re-declare his candidacy to the top seat. If he was the leader as you want to put it where was this pressure coming from?
Politics is just things to keep the people divided and foolish and put your trust in men and none of them can do nothing for you...
