Yes, i know, its been a while since i spewed rhetoric on this blog.....I have been busy trying to better myself though, i must admit, have not been blind to all political shenanigans which have been going around in my country, Kenya.
As i write, the presidential race for the 2013 presidential elections has already began and Kenyans have in the past two days been presented with "Stallions" vying for the race and all over sudden the population is placing their bets on which horse is going to win.
For the sake of the readers who are not conversant with the Kenyan political scene as at December 5th 2012, allow me to break it down for you...
Mwai kibaki, the third president of Kenya, is in the last trimester of his second and last presidential term which is bound to expire in Mid-2013.To succeed him are many politicians but for the sake of this post, i will only focus on three political alliances that are in the race for the Kibaki succession.
Kenya is a highly tribal country. Tribalism is deeply rooted within the borders of Kenya.Tribal stereotypes are regarded as jokes in Kenya.Indeed, the Kenyan comedy industry thrives on tribal jokes and stereotypes. Whenever you meet a Kenyan for a first time, and you are of African descent,then, they will in one way or another try to find out your second name so as to know your tribe, and consequently pass judgement on what type of person you might be, based on your tribe.....Sherioushly!!!!!!
In the last general elections Kenya almost went to the dogs, after ODM lost the elections to Mwai Kibaki's PNU. The main protagonists
