He has handled the pandemic very well. Nyeri people didn't want him as their senator and they voted him out 2017. His joblessness ended when Uhuru decided to kill tangatanga in Mt Kenya region by appointing the rejected politicians from the region.
He could make a good governor.

Why deconstruct her? Envious of her 15 minutes of glory? Most likely...

There is nothing to be envious of her. Probably only her recovery from Covid-19, which might even be a hoax anyway.

To what end? so you feel good about yourselves? - Problem with this kind of thrill seeking is you end up feeling like a jerk. The only thing that can save you from that is if you seek out the person and apologize but since you cannot find them you look for some thing else to hate on to "uplift" yourself. It becomes a cycle and your new normal. Sooner or later you are a sociopath.

The Big Questions
Why Are People Mean? Part 1
Being mean is a product of insecure self-esteem.
Posted Jun 29, 2013
It is easy to understand the motivation to get along with others. For starters, humans are incredibly social beings who need positive relationships. In fact, there really would be no chance of society existing if people did not, by and large, cooperate with each other and get along.
Yet people often harm each other on purpose. (In other news, the sky is blue!)
Why is this? Why do people so often want to hurt and harm others? Decades of research indicates that there is much truth in the popular belief that people are mean to others in order to feel better about themselves.
Positive Distinctiveness
Social identity theory argues that humans have a basic psychological need for "positive distinctiveness." In other words, people have a need to feel unique from others in positive ways. As humans naturally form groups, this need for positive distinction extends to the groups we belong to. That is, we tend to view our in-groups more favorably than out-groups (groups we do not belong to). And as a consequence, we tend to see people who are not part of our group less positively than people who are. This is especially likely to occur when there is competition between the groups or when people feel like the identity of their group has been challenged.
Research in this tradition most often finds that people display in-group favoritism, and further, that degrading out-group members can have a positive impact on self-esteem and feelings of positivity towards one's groups.
Downward Comparisons
Social comparison theory argues that people naturally make comparisons to other people. And these comparisons often make us feel worse about ourselves or better about ourselves. As we generally prefer to feel good, we are prone to making downward comparisons, or comparisons that enable us to look down on other people. Moreover, research based on this theory also supports the notion that people are more negative towards others when they have been insulted or belittled, and that this can make people feel better about themselves (it can help restore self-esteem). In one study, when people were told they were unattractive (using fake feedback), compared to being told they were attractive, they rated others not only as less attractive but also less intelligent and less kind. Put succinctly, being insulted made people more likely to demean others.
Classical Projection
Freud argued decades ago that people cope with negative views of themselves by perceiving other people as having particularly high levels of that same negative view. Basically, say you are feeling dishonest. You are then more likely to see other people as dishonest, and this makes you, in a sense, feel more honest yourself.
Research supports this idea. In one study, when people were told they were high in anger, they were more likely to perceive another person's behavior as exhibiting anger. And, in doing so, they had less angry thoughts themselves.
Ego Threat
Researchers have discovered that it is threatened self-esteem that drives a lot of aggression. In other words, it doesn't really matter if people feel good or bad about themselves in general. What matters is that people, in the moment, feel worse about themselves than usual.
This line of research has found that threatened self-esteem is associated with a wide range of heightened aggressive behaviors. For instance, when people are insulted, as opposed to praised, they are more likely to force another person to listen to obnoxious noises.
Summary
Whether it is as a means of promoting our groups or ourselves, we tend to be more aggressive when our self-worth has been challenged and we are not feeling particularly positive about ourselves. When our self-esteem is threatened, we are more likely to compare ourselves to people we think are worse off than us, to see other people as having more negative traits, to degrade people who aren't members of our groups, and to become more directly aggressive towards people in general.
When you insult or criticize someone else, it may say more about how you are feeling about yourself than the other person.
Insecurity over ourselves drives much of the cruelty in the world.

Moral of the story: if you're not Jeff Koinange, Francis Atwoli, Tony Gachoka, Miguna Miguna or any other practised windbag, do not lie on national TV.
The CS, State House and their favoured bloggers have egg on thier faces. I don't even know why they have to approach a medical problem like a pageant.
