Thank you people for opening your eyes. Given a chance , I think Marthar Karua would make Kibaki, Moi and Kenyatta look like saints.

There is a high likelihood that if Marthar was not in the picture in 2007 , Kibaki would have conceded defeat and PEV would have been avoided or be in smaller scale.

Artul brothers ,Marthar was in the picture.Water fund allocation when she was the water ministry was badly skewed(just as Charity has been doing/ perfected at a higher scale but luckily for Marthar PLO was not in the picture, it was Ringera).Major Pharmacists in parliament smoke the flower, aaaaai no! This is new Kenya we need to start a process of getting new leaders.We may not succeed in 2012 or 2017 or even 2022 but we can succeed.The journey should start now.

We can move from what we see/think as good leadership to great leadership by taking small but forward steps.

Other than being forceful Martha is just another politician dotting our political landscape period!

Like the rest of the pack she plays the politics of self interest.

She only ditched Kibaki when she realised she wasnt very well placed in his grand succesion matrix.
Only then She began playing rogue and eventualy organised her perfect exit plan - playing victim.

What Martha is playing today is pure populist politics.

Otherwise how does anyone explain her posturing during Kibakis first term:

-She defended the Aglo leasing scandal and its players.

-She defended the Mamluki fiasco.

She scorned those who chose to fight NO during the 2005 referundun - going to an extend of calling the Northen Kenya communities Refugess!

She helped Kibaki withold all the commission of enquiry reports.

She adopted as see no evil hear no evil approach in Govt.

Kibaki of 2nd term is an Angel compared to that of 1st term, yet conveniently she only saw his faults in his second term!!

Yet She was his most ardent defender.

It's all about positioning herself to hoodwink Kenyans.

Self interests and a headstrong character(she once tried to kick box Raila)!

Pass her on us!!!


Your chronology of events are biased in that you claim Martha fell out with Kibaki on his second term actually Narc kenya was formed in his first term 2006 to be specific.After Githongo dossier painted a corrupt govt Martha started distancing her self with The Kiabaki brigade.

During her term as a justice minister most reform agenda were mooted including fast tracking referendum.

Its quite a pity that you would equate her silence on evils committed by Kibaki to being supportive of those evils.

As I said earlier unless you have something this lady said that was not true or was misleading to the public or was not for the public good please innuendos and witch hunting will not fly.

Dishonesty or blind following!!

Narc Kenya was formed by the whole lot and caboodle of Kibaki brigade after Ngilu refused to let go of the original NARC.
All of Kiraitu, Saitoti, Kituyi participated in the formation of Nark Kenya and went out to popularise it, with Kibakis blessings.
On some belated advise, Kibaki changed his mind - about joining it.
Then PNU was cobbled together, less than 4months before the elections.
This annoyed Kituyi and Martha a great deal!!, but they had to eat humble pie and join PNU albeit as a corporate members - via Narc Kenya.
Martha only took over a moribund Narck Kenya after 2007 elections and was elected its chair.

You are well aware that Martha fell out with Kibaki just the other day well into Kibakis 2nd term!

The 2010 referundum was a result of the Annan chaired negotiations, - part of Agenda 4, as agreed at Serena and passed in Parliament- Karua cant purport to take any credit.

Did you say she was silent on Kibakis misdeeds!!

she defended all of them vigorously - as Minister for justice.
Werent you in Kenya!!!!

Remember her interviews on Telly and even on BBC!!

She even oppossed minimal reforms to create a better environment for 2007 elections!
She defended Kibaki's action to unilaterally appoint ECK commissioners in disregard for IPPG.


At serena during the National reconciliation talks, she was the most uncompromising and came out as an unrealistic hardliner.
That is a big setback for someone gunning for President.
You cannot stick too strongly to your opinions - what if you are wrong.

Her temperament is yet another set back.

I recognise that, like everybody else, she has her positive side too.

However, the negatives are too grave for a President aspirant.

What with all the insults she hurled at the Western Countries' Ammbassadors and even our guest Annan during the Serena talks.

@Ngalaka,

I am amazed to find myself whole heartedly agreeing with you. Whenever I think about Martha, the image forming in my head is always of an uncompromising arrogant bi*ch unwilling to entertain any thoughts that she did not originate.

She is tiringly confrontational, disrespectful and certainly should never lead anything.

Saw this on Martha Karua facebook wall...

Its quite easy to draw conclusions based on this sort of argument.

Anyway given SKM, RAO, UK, Ruto or Martha....definitely she's by far better off.

I believe we see,but accept that hakuna malaika in politics and choose the lesser evil- based on our value system,things that means something to us etc.
To fault Karua for her stance in 2007 in my opinion is pretentious ( that word again!).

I have said it before that to expect that the next administration will be scandal free is to live is utopia. Even the big 'democracies'; who are ever breathing down our necks have their fair share of scandals...........watu watakula,the question will be who will kula without bringing the country to its knees?
Lolest!
