The Kikuyu reached a point they hated anybody who talked about corruption. They boycotted reading DN for David Ndiis column that chronicled Jubilee plunder. Seventh thread on Railaphobia – LONG THREAD, YOU CAN DISCARD
If Raila was that bad for giving Uhuru competition, you would imagine that hatred would be over once he decided to support Uhuru. This was the first contradiction. A common accusation again was that he is very selfish; he must be up to something
The Kikuyu accuse Raila of killing democracy in Luoland, yet they hated SK Macharia for supporting Raila in 2013. They even boycotted advertising with Inooro and citizen radio. They hated Tabitha of Keroche and boycotted summit beer – Saying Raila was shareholder
They would say how Luos are slaves of Raila but reserve the severest insults for Kikuyus who don’t support Uhuru. They were happy when Raila was barred from patronizing a Karatina hotel and when NASA was barred from holding a rally in Thika.
The same things done to them by Moi government, they never cared about happening to other people. They never even wanted to hear about corruption. Some Kikuyus openly confessed boycotting Nation newspaper because of David Ndii’s column – it talked too much about corruption.
Sentiment went around that Ndii is so negative and unpatriotic. This reverberated even within official circles and finally found its way to NMG offices. The pressure was mounted and the column was finally expunged. Exactly how Moi killed “Beyond” and “Financial Review” magazines
After so much pretense, the Kikuyu finally admitted that “Uhuru witu” did not live to expectations. Their love turned to hate and openly call him a failure. But why are they supporting Ruto? Because he assisted them to elect Uhuru. They are happy with the contradiction
When Uhuru alluded to possibility of supporting a non-Kikuyu and Kalenjin for next President, the chorus of “tribes don’t lead” sprang from Kikuyu circles. But they say this while saying they collectively owe Ruto because “they” promised him. They are OK with the contradiction
In the same way Railaphobia is not supported by any rationality, Kikuyu political stand as a tribe is a case study in contradictions. There are of course many Kikuyu people who stood for truth and democracy, but it doesn’t invalidate this collective condemnation
So what do we have in Kenya after KUMIRA KUMIRA – We killed chapter 6 of the new constitution to accommodate Uhuru. In the process, we let “all the dogs out”. Integrity means nothing in our country. A criminal record is, in fact, an asset in Kenyan politics.
Institutions set free by the new constitution were clawed to allow Uhuru and Ruto to abuse state apparatus to fight ICC. This ended up bottling the problem of impunity. Those who are politically correct are exempted from the justice system, just as it happened under Moi.
IEBC was to guarantee was to ensure no electoral violence again. With chapter 6 out, political corruption gnawed at IEBC turning it into a sanctuary of crime. In 2107, IEBC used fake ballots and even had the courage to present them in court and defy Supreme Court order on servers
One year to elections and IEBC has no commissioners. The country is heavily crippled by debts. Medics are on strike and no leader is available to solve the crisis. We are still one the most corrupt countries – just where Moi left us. A small crisis can TEAR KENYA APART
Who has brought us this backward after so much struggle to liberate our country and restore democracy? WE ARE IN THIS SHIT BECAUSE OF KIKUYU SELFISHNESS AND POLITICAL INTRANSIGENCE. It will take another round of struggle to liberate Kenya from the firm grip of cartels
And when Kikuyus finally admit it was a mistake, what is their solution to the crisis? – I am ashamed of saying it. Next thread
