Now that Kalonzo has provided a shoulder for Riggy G to lean on of late...

Is he doing so as a genuine friend or as an opportunist who believes he can scoop the Kikuyu vote come 2027?

Watch my take here: https://youtu.be/NR2czJSStjQ

Anyway, what's your take?

This man William Ruto is a real Shujaa!

He's always ready to make the hardest and unpopular decisions for the sake Kenyans.

ยป0Whereas such decisions and policies may not favor the elite (those who benefit from the status quo), they have the potential to make Kenya better for the majority.

For instance...

1. Realizing that our university education is rigged to lock out the poor, the President formed a team of experts and came up with a funding model that focuses on EQUITY!

As expected, those who were benefiting from the rigged system are opposed to the new funding model and have been doing all they can to incite students against it.

But according to the Vice Chancellors, the professionals who run our universities, the new Funding Model is 1000 times better and has revived struggling universities...

2. Seeing that majority of Kenyans in urban centers, live in slums...others only stopped at SLUM IMPROVEMENT...Daktari on the other hand is focused on SLUM ERADICATION through affordable housing in every county.

As expected, those who already enjoy housing allowances from the state have trivialized it to "leave my payslip alone" and are inciting slum dwellers to reject the noble idea...

But ask someone who's been living in dehumanizing conditions is they'd not want a decent house...they all do... in the end, the affordable housing program will bring back dignity to most Kenyans

3. In a country where falling sick is synonymous with drifting into poverty, there was need for universal healthcare.

But thanks to resistance from those who were comfortable with the existing cover, no president was bold enough to rollout meaningful changes in the health sector.

Since Daktari cares about the future, he made the bold step to rollout a new health care plan. Kenyans are already enjoying better healthcare even as the teething problems are being fixed

That, ladies and gentlemen, is who Ruto is! He doesn't shy away from making bold moves that will transform Kenya...even if such decisions aren't popular at the time!

Behold a Shujaa of our time!

Behold the Deputy President, The Hon. Kindiki Kithure!

Broken Nyus...

Just as we told you (https://youtu.be/RJTl-1kicp8) the Judiciary has ruled that it cannot interfere with Parliament. They can only be approached after the impeachment to see if due PROCESS was followed.

In short, the Deputy President only hope is to convince the Senate to acquit him.

The End!

As of today, the DP has made 24 attempts to have the courts stop his impeachment...

In fact, there is a 3-judge bench that's supposed to rule on his application to stop the senate from proceeding with the impeachment process.

The question is...

Can the Judiciary gag parliament and save the DP from going home?

Here is what I think...

https://youtu.be/RJTl-1kicp8

NOTE: The DP has made it clear that he's entirely depending on the Judiciary to save him.

What do you think?

Unnecessary Emotions and sense of entitlement aside...

Who, between President Ruto and DP Rigathi betrayed, the other?

It's a FACT that The Deputy President has not hidden his feelings about his boss, President Ruto...

Apart from holding rallies in Mt. Kenya to INCITE the public against his boss and to paint his boss as the most dishonest person alive, the DP lead a team that chanted "Ruto Must Go".

From his address to the nation (from Mombasa) to the recent interview on Citizen, the DP has made it clear that President Ruto is out of touch with the people...unlike him who's listening to the people.

H.E Rigathi has not minced his word when it comes to criticizing government policies too.

In other words, you can say AUTHORITATIVELY that the DP doesn't believe in both his boss and the government he runs.

Fair enough, we are in a democracy and the Deputy President has every right to express how he feels.

The question is...

Why on earth would a TRUTHFUL Man like Rigathi INSIST to be the Principal Assistant to an INCOMPETENT LIAR like Ruto?

Why not resign?

And before you feed me the "he was elected by 7.2m Kenyans" remember the constitution states clearly that his job is to DEPUTIZE Ruto...in layman's word, do what Ruto tells him...

Do you think an honest man like RIgathi can pretend to deputize someone he hates; let alone support policies of a government he no longer believes in?

Not at all!

Unless there is a hidden reason why the man is fighting tooth and nail to remain in office.

Well, here is why I think the DP would rather die than resign...

https://youtu.be/2ZHJtM5UwaI

Yes, the DP is very smart...and he will fight tooth and nail to remain in Ruto's government even though he DESPISES Ruto and LOATHS government policy!

Some believe he's a political genius and a reliable friend while others are calling him a coward.

If you listened to Members of the National Assembly (NA) debate the impeachment motion, it was a case of "no love lost"

Even the mood of the Senate this morning was similar to that of the NA...

It's obvious that that most MPs have had enough of the Deputy President.

But how did we reach here?

What's the MAIN reason why MPs OVERWHELMINGLY voted to kick DP Rigathi Gachagua out office!

Well, here is my take:

https://youtu.be/KiOHIV9_uek

By the way, I believe the DP can still save himself by abandoning the "k**a mbaya mbaya" attitude and embracing humility.

The question is, can the son of Mau Mau (elected by 7.2m voters) humble himself before MERE MPs, let alone a USELESS President like Ruto?

This man Ndindi Nyoro...

Sometime back, DP Rigathi saw him as a real threat...in fact, in my opinion, he's the reason the DP retreated to Mt. Kenya...he felt like Ndindi was gaining ground both in the region and nationally...

But interestingly, once the DP launched an offensive against Ndindi and anyone who supported him...the Kiharu MP quietly withdrew...

He left the DP focused on the control of Mt. Kenya...

Question...

Did he deliberately trick the DP into regional politics knowing well it'd put the DP in problems?

Why did he make the about turn?

Well, here is what I believe happened...

What do you think the Kiharu MP is aiming at?
