Its hard to understand Jubilee supporters.
As NASA supporters we wanted to register our discontent with the IEBC and the electoral process. Our grievances may have been valid and genuine or not. But its a right granted by our constitution and reinforced by at least four high court rulings.
But any attempt to exercise this right always ends up with corpses all over. We clearly underestimated how blood-thirsty those in power are.
Our party leader has now decided to end the killings. Lets hit these people where it will hurt them most. Their pockets. Its a passive resistance movement. A protest in which we can all participate without anyone getting hurt.
Now I am reading "expert analysis" on product boycotts by our Jubilee friends. Thank you but no thanks.
At least three fake propaganda letters purportedly from NASA have been released today. One even had Total and VIVO as some of the companies whose products we are boycotting. Very telling coming from the same people claiming a boycott won't work. THE OFFICIAL LIST IS NOT YET OUT.
The K'ogalo bread may be a good reference point.
To date, its been the subject of 3 court cases as bakers fight over the lucrative contract. Currently, the owners of the Elliots brand are selling at least 100,000 loaves everyday.
For now, we have started with the obvious ones as we await the official list. Brookside and M-shwari. Please let us protest in peace.
But @FRM, why would baba boycott? Why not let IEBC fail again and take the matter back to the Supreme Court where he has sympathizers if he believes in the rule of law and not the jungle laws of 1982 and 2007-8?
These are the reasons Jubilee believe he chickened off because he knew that he didn't have the numbers for his last attempt at being ruoth.
BBI will solve it :)
