I have taken time to think about whatever Masaa wrote on his social media page and even gave him time maybe he will delete it after a few days as he usually does, but am deeply troubled by the. fact that it seems it is an aggressive political discourse he has chosen or is a message from the candidate Rebby Chepchumba Sebei
Labeling a political race "kufa kupona" is inherently dangerous because it means use of all means to force her election. For those of us in Baringo, this language is not just a figure of speech; it is deeply triggering. It reminds us of the horrific wounds we suffered at the hands of bandits who used the same Kufa kupona' mentality on banditry and catlle rustling, and which has costed us the lives of thousands of our people and their livelihoods. Do not remind us our pains please.
What is perhaps most concerning is the silence from the candidate herself. If Rebby truly believes in a fair, free, and democratic election, she should have immediately condemned this language. By failing to denounce these tactics, she implicitly condones them. This conduct should be flagged as a red flag, as it is clearly intended to coerce voters and intimidate other candidates. We must ask: is she funding Masaa to inject fear into the race to secure an unfair advantage?
Furthermore, the public declaration of a "3M" campaign fund, coupled with this "do or die" pressure, shifts the focus entirely toward intimidation and financial bravado. When a supporter pushes a candidate with such unexplained intensity, it raises serious questions about the hidden interests being protected. Any candidate surrounded by or silent about proxies who promote this kind of volatility and use funding to manipulate the electorate should flagged by the people, IEBC, NCIC, and EACC the projection of power, threats, or the use of proxies to manipulate the political environment.
Because of this shift toward exclusionary and manipulative scheme politics, many of us who had genuine intentions to support this candidacy are now stepping back. We are compelled to look for candidates who value free, respectful, and open opinion rather than those who foster an environment of pressure, ultimatums, and coercive tactics.
Politics should be a contest of ideas that respects our traditions and the dignity of our people. I urge all political actors and their supporters to move away from this dangerous rhetoric already projected by Masaa Kibet . I will continue to hold ever candidate to the standard of accountability our county deserves with the sole aim to seek out and support leadership that prioritizes the unity, maturity, and peaceful democratic space that Baringo truly deserves.
I want to remind Rebby to hold her dogs in it's kernel because if not, they are destroying whatever had been build forthwith.
Lastly, since you are the Director at NRT, we owe you thousands of questions in regard to this NRT with which we had problems with in Saimo-soi and. parts of Baringo West. One, the great people of Saimo-soi are worried that once you are elected as women Rep, their lands which they have defended for long will be at stake and easily available for the NRT or whosoever had interest in.
So Rebby you should used people like Masaa to deliver such messages than vomiting on us. Nonetheless, nfact you should pitch tent in entire Saimo-soi and let them unhook their worries otherwise be assured of zero vote.
Until Rebby condemns this stupid talk by Masaa, be assured hiyo kiti utaonea Viusasa. #
