Some things will never change. The fact of the matter is that ODM shortchanged itself in the negotiations and would like them re-opened. When RAO goes to the podium and says if not this,then elections,I am sure he understands what he is saying and he knows that the elections can only be called by the President and not by himself (this is assuming we are following the constitution). I am sure that he knows that there is no electoral body to oversee elections and his is only meant to electrify the masses. As an equal partner,let him storm Harambee House and sought out their differences there. As one Michuki would say,how will the public one when the solution is not with the public. Unless,the agenda is to excite and have the DJ-like coup in Kenya.

@Evolve

Spot on,this is another way of calling for re-negotiations.
Remember before Koffi Annan came it was the same language,even though they perfectly knew a repeat election was an impossibility.
Deja vu.

If ODM pulles out of the coalition,we do not necessarily have to go for election. The coalition will stand disolved but MK can still continue running the government. Only MK can dissolve parliament and call for elections. Most MPs are not for elections. And without ECK (IECK?) and voter register,elections are far off into 2012.

The plans of the diligent lead surely to plenty,but those of everyone who is hasty,surely to poverty.

agreed... identify new leadership first.. some revolutionary movement (minus recylced pple looking for power); but trouble is,power corrupts,. and absolute power corrupts absolutely..... the clause of 'recall' in the constitution is what we badly need before elections... not worry the costs because we will ahve so many recalls and byelections!!

Every dream starts as an idea; just like a tree starts as a tiny seed
