@ Nostopping....Fair enough I get your point but is there any difference with whats happening elsewhere, i think the only difference is that Mt. Kenya has a name for it (GEMA). Do you want to tell us that Luos can reject RAO and vote for another candidate, has it ever happened.....i'm not talking of coalitions here or MOUs, can those Kenyans reject the captain? My point here is that tribalism is everywhere, you cannot expect a certain region/tribe to do the unexpected yet you're not ready to embrace the same concept. Maybe what we need as a country is a President from the smaller tribes especially now that we a have a new constitution.

I was wondering about this too. Mr.@nostoppingthis, TAZ has flipped the coin. Please do tell if this can ever happen, again without coalitions, MOUs, etc.

Remember in 2005, they rejected the bad constitutions because they were told it was bad.

Next year they will be told to jump inside Nam Lolwe (Lake Victoria for those brain washed characters).

Let me re-flip the coin yet again.

GEMA is a composite, right?
Unlike luo that is single, right?

So for lack of a better way to put it, luo and luhya formed their own local gema, lets call it LL.

But one L is challenging the other L.

Nostopping this is asking why this is not being replicated in gema. Why E or M cannot challenge G? Can the Harvard graduate develop spine and challenge G? Like the one L that is challenging the other L?

Within the G, the L model is being aggressively copied. That is why the Harvard graduate sees and accepts it.

There is more democracy in LL than in GEMA. Yet all we hear about is dictatorship in LL.

Waiting for G vote for E is like waiting for luos vote for Suba, Gema is like Luhya or Kalenjins: subtribes united by similar culture. Have you noticed the similarity of names such that when Embu and Meru are employed in civil service are labelled as Kikuyu. Tribalism will not die in hypocrisy, but by transparent engagement on facts.
Democracy does not belong to the dead
