Hypocrisy

The cost of Prime Minister Raila Odinga and Vice-President Kalonzo Musyoka’s frequent trips abroad is in the spotlight as a restless population grapples with the rising cost of living.

A review of Mr Odinga and Mr Musyoka’s diaries reveals that each has been making as many as three foreign trips a month, translating into millions of shillings in travel and accommodation expenses.

Only last month, the PM spent close to three weeks on official visits to the US and France while Mr Musyoka has just returned from a week-long tour of India.

Barely two days after returning to the country from the tour of US and France, the PM was again off to Zimbabwe last Friday to open the third Movement for Democratic Change congress in Bulawayo.

On Wednesday, Mr Odinga was once again off to Cape Town, South Africa, to attend the World Economic Forum on climate change.

These deals and agreements never used to be made public.

Seems most of them are power deals and underground cabling of power lines,I hope those ugly KPLC poles and power lines will soon disappear in our city!



My only question is why is UK involved in commercial contracts being entered into by government entities?
