Kenya: The Vee Pee is best described as a jackal (fox) that discretely follows a he-goat at a safe distance

The Vee Pee is best described as a jackal (fox) that discretely follows a he-goat at a safe distance concentrating on the pouch swinging left and right. He hopes it will fall any time so that he will have a good meal without sweating for it.
Raila is credited for sacrifices, including agreeing to accept only the head and tail of the game that he single-handedly hunted and delivered to Kibaki who was bedridden, that needs volumes to document. While he was standing naked in knee-deep Nyayo torture chambers, Kalonzo was warm in a suit with Moi in the state house and competed with Kamotho for the post of court poet in the Moi regime.
To say the least, Kalonzo was a gate -crasher at the party but pushed and pulled and showed the more deserved to get his present seat on the high table. He is on the same pedestal with Kenyatta, Moi, Kibaki, Michuki, and a host of other Kenyatta-Moi-Kibaki henchmen in the conservancy and nurturing of impunity in this country.
Kalonzo divested himself of any moral and personal convictions once he sat on the Vee Pee’s chair and replaced them with those of the devilish vested interests surrounding Kibaki. Even Saitoti fared better than him!
I don’t know where Mr. Rapondi did his Political Science course. Let’s say he ‘read’ Political Science in some university but failed to become a political scientist, because scientists do not present material that can’t stand the scrutiny of history.
If Mr.Rapondi thinks selfless service, democratic credentials and a will to forge ahead of competitors are not attributes befitting a future president, let him look for one among Mbuvi, Kuttuny, S.Rutto, Waitutu and co. of the rabble rouser types.
