Abdication or Resignation?

[Tiiga Waana]

The way events are unfolding in Kenya is very concerning.
It seems, for all intents and purposes, that Ruto and Kenya Kwisha are no longer in charge and the Country is in a free fall.
The Military also has no leverage on this popular uprising and if the Organisers so wish they could easily bring the Country to a standstill and ungovernable.

This brings us to the most serious question of the moment.
What contingency measures does JSKS have in his sleeves?
When Moi faced a similar challenge to his throne, he became dictatorial and draconian raining terror on his perceived enemies.
Could JSKS borrow a leaf and shut down Social media, curb freedoms of association and expression and reopen Nyati House?

Of course the one arsenal left in his armoury is to call a snap General Election if he believes, despite all evidence to the contrary, that he is popular to stand a chance of winning.
But having made so many enemies in such a short span of time would be prudent or wise to surmount such a challenge?

Nin kama anaona he can just pull a Moi and rule like Museveni.

Problem is that he is working with bad data.

Atajua hajui.

It's long since I saw anyone so adept at self-destructing like Ruto. Barely two years and his arrogance has turned the whole country against him. I wonder whether Uhuru is happy at being proved right this early. Can't help remembering being told that this half-wit was the one leading the country while Uhuru was busy drinking. Sasa huyu amelewa na nini?

No, I don't think he is happy, much as he has been proven right.

I think all Kenyans are saddened by the turn of events.

Folks used to say and unfortunately think that Ruto was clever, understanding, sober-minded and a “hustler like us”.

Uhuru, being the Statesman that he is, was constrained on the tone and language during the Campaigns as he had to be diplomatic and gentille as opposed to Gachagua and Ruto who used the most awful and foul words against him.

Less than 500 days later, it is now clear as day that Ruto is the most dense and inhumane man around. He just used Mama Mboga, Boda Boda and all the down-trodden to advance himself and has no scruples or wish to help them other than exploit them.

He loathe common and poor people which is why he is accusing them of “desecrating State Institutions”as if Folks are contaminated and do not deserve entry as opposed to him and the ruling class.
