Starting campaigns so early, and covertly asking mps to endorse you every time they hit the podium shows weakness and self doubt.


Infact Rao acting very presidential of late.

Poleni sana.

I feel sorry for anyone waking up to vote for any kenyan

Only Mt Kenya can save Looto in 2022. His people have given up on him.

Mt. Kenya will give votes to Baba in 2022.

I also see this has higher possibility... Let @Angelica know that if it is about promises, 2002 promise to Baba came before the alleged 2013 promise to Loot0. So first promises will be paid first... That is why we do not hear "my brother" anymore, instead it is "tangatanga"... so the writings is on the wall.


Mt Kenya has never followed advice of an outgoing leader. Uhuru will be powerless and without influence from January 2022.

BBI will solve it

So far so good, there has been only one kikuyu president who has retired from politics, i dont know where you are getting that assumption from.
Nevertheless, it is high time that mt. Kenya shows support for someone else and i expect the same with luos too.
The rest of kenyans should cooperate to steal "power" from Luos and Kikuyus.
A president from coast would do this country good. At least someone who can speak proper kiswahili

Personally, I think this is a fair price and Kshs 3,600 is way over inflated, that's Ksh 40 per Kg!!! Kuttuny is lying to the farmers. Government should not agree to be arm twisted to use taxpayers money to buy raw maize @ Kshs 40 per Kg, even milk doesn't fetch that.

2,300 is fair price for kenyan farmers while 3,000 is fair price for Mexican farmers?

Current market price in nairobi is 1600 bob. Govt has no business distorting the maize market. Let market forces prevail.

But they can distort prices for Maize from Mexico was imported @ 4000/= and Maize from Uganda Imported @3,300/=, right?

You are the same people who want cheap 70 bob unga but still want govt to set price at 3600 bob.

If maize is priced at 3600 it means 2kg is 80 bob.

Then add:
Milling cost 10 bob
Packaging 10 bob
Warehousing, marketing 20 bob
Profit for miller 30 bob
Profit for retailer 20 bob

Total cost 170 bob.

Thus 2kg unga price at supermarket will be = 170 bob.

Also note that the govt isn't a maize marketing agency. They are only supposed to hold stocks at the strategic grain reserve to cushion the country in case of drought/famine.
