Nope.The ground is hostile because the people are living in deplorable conditions and yet 'they are in the government'.The president is dishing out the goodies to those who didn't vote for him like in Mombasa,nyanza& western and nothing for central.They feel they are being taken like used condoms.Look at the state of the roads.

Uhuru is not Okuyus and Okuyus is not Uhuru.Not yet Uhuru

In the 1960s, Kenyatta and Oginga were friends. The British wanted Oginga to be president. They thought Kenyatta would be bad. I believe the governor referred to Kenyatta as "The leader unto hell"

Oginga so believed in Kenyatta that he refused the British offer and insisted that Kenyatta must be released and become the 1st president.

Shortly after independence, the two fell out because Oginga accused Kenyatta of being a land grabber. Kenyatta retaliated by firing Oginga and convincing kikuyus that Oginga was trying to prevent the Agikuyu from being prosperous.

Agikuyu believed Kenyatta and Oginga became the most hated person in central province. With Oginga sidelined, Kenyatta was able to continue with his land grabbing scheme, removing kikuyus and resettling them in Nakuru or Nyandarua.

This is the root of hostility between kikuyus and luos. Things only got worse when Tom Mboya was gunned down in broad daylight.

Since there is so much hostility there, it is very easy even today for leaders to create distrust between the two groups if it will benefit them. They do this by demonizing other leaders. And even so called educated elites fall for it.

History keeps repeating itself. Even today, Kenyan tribal chiefs are busy turning people against each other so they can prosper.

Our leaders have succeed in convincing us that criticism against a tribal chief is criticism against the entire tribe. This allows the tribal chiefs to continue looting . Look at Ruto with the Mau complex land grabbing scheme. He was grabbing land near water towers. When accused he shouted that RAO has betrayed the kalenjin. many believed him. Such is the power of a tribal chief. IN RV especially, people have been conditioned to belive that the prosperity of their leaders is paramount to the success and pride of the people.

Its a shame because in Kenya today, everyone has a relative who belongs to another ethnic group. If you are kikuyu, chances are that you have a luo relative. If you are a luhya, chances are that you have a Kalenjin relative. And so forth.
And when a tribal chief prospers via land grabbing or looting, the people he leads don't actually benefit. Some even become poorer. Some who are displaced end up living in hostile regions.

The perception of being beaten by rain is because We have just been lied to by our leaders.

The 2005 referendum was a rejection of a bad constitution. Uhuru Kenyatta was also was against the 2005 constitution. And even Kibaki later admitted that it was bad.

How did people end up believing that the
rejection of the 2005 constitution was a move against kikuyus?
The answer is people were lied to by their leaders.

As Kenyans we should be united against corruption and bad leadership. The average peasant of middle class fellow does not benefit when a person from their tribe steals. When anyone steals from the government, we all lose. Yet our leaders have conditioned us to believe that criticism of a tribal chief is a criticism of the whole tribe. This is what enables them to loot the treasury and grab land with abandon. They know they can depend on their tribe to support them.

Kibaki blew it. He won the 2002 election after having received wholehearted support from all Kenyan provinces. Kenyans were very united in 2002. Kibaki had a lot of goodwill. People in western, Nyanza and Coast turned out in droves to vote for Kibaki.

Instead of building on that unity and trust, Kibaki retreated back to his tribal coccoon this creating hostility.

The term coined by Nation newspapers "Mount Kenya mafia" was true. It was a recognition of the fact that Kibaki took all that goodwill and wasted it.

Similarly in 1963, Kenyans were united across all provinces. Kenyatta was riding a crest of popularity. Instead of building on that unity and goodwill, he retreated to his own tribal cocoon hence the term "kiambu mafia".

He managed to convince the people that the prosperity of a few people within the tribe is a source of pride for the whole tribe.

Funny how history repeats itself
Each-time there is an opportunity to unite the nation and diffuse tribal tension, our leaders blow it. Then they convince us that their land grabbing and theft is goood for all members of the tribe.

And if a leader from another tribe intervenes, he is your enemy and should sidelined (Oginga) or he is a enemy who should be killed (Pinto, Mboya and maybe Ngala)

And if a leader from your own tribe intervenes, he is a traitor who should be killed (JM Kariuki) or he is a traitor who should be sidelined, rigged out of office and cast aside (Bildad Kaggia). Or if he is too stubborn, he should just be detained in jail without trial (Koigi Wamwere and others)

Somehow the leadership convinced the people that actions like murder, detention, and expulsion from the party were justified because they were in the best interests of the tribe.

Today in 2016 we still haven't learned. Even Boniface Mwangi is seen as an enemy by many on wazua. In reality Boniface Mwangi types who criticize both sides of the political equation are the kind of people who can unite Kenyans by making us more of an issue oriented people. Being tribe oriented only benefits a few elites.

On the 1982 coup

Moi knew about the 1982 coup at least months in advance. he even knew the exact date. Please read up on it. According to this Daily nation article, the special branch asked Moi if they could arrest the coup plotters and Moi refused.

The reason Moi let the coup happen is because he wanted to use the coup as an excuse to clamp down harder on dissidents, rid his cabinet of powerful people like Njonjo and detain potential trouble makers like RAO.

He also wanted to purge the military and police of powerful men from the Jomo Kenyatta regime like the original Ben Gethi who was chief of police and also Maj Gen Kariuki who was AirForce commander. I think even Bernard Hinga was tossed into Kamiti maximum for a brief period.

Most importantly he wanted to justify the decision to make Kenya a one-party state.

Moi knew deep down that a group of delusional Airforce privates were never going to be able to stage a succesful coup d'etat.

This tactic of letting a coup happen has been used by African leaders before. Obote did it in Uganda in the late 1960s. But the most sensational example happened in 1965 in Zaire. Mobutu used a colonel Bangala to infiltrate the opposition and goad them into plotting a coup. He then accused them of treason and hang them in public. It is known as the pentecost hangings. Some of these were former cabinet members like Evariste Kimba.

Once again our leaders are very adept at fooling us. The 1982 coup was Moi's making but he succeeded in convincing the public that other people were at fault. The episode made Moi very popular and justified his actions.

To a very large extend I concur with these views.
Kibaki had a golden opportunity to cement the new found cohesion in the Country. He blew it instead. Granted in the first days of his presidency he was unwell, but he recovered and we didnt see him steer the country in another direction insofar as cohesion is concerned.
However I credit him with positive economic development.
As for Jomo Kenyatta my view is that he encouraged cronyism and tribal chauvinism.

Having said that may I also add that I take a divergent view (disagree) over the views (most) expressed in your Five posts above before this one.

Woman killed her husband to enjoy wealth with a young man. The young man later kills the woman. Malipo ni hapa hapa duniani.

I wish you well, you think, just like Duale, that you are very special in the coalition!
