What are the indicators. Don't let SM mislead you
Revolution in Kenya cannot happen without the support of the educated mass(Unemployed graduates and underpaid employees). Currently, this group of the population is busy with Njunge betting while the noise makers on chocho midia are the middle class who are trying to live a life they cannot afford hence venting on chocho midia and talking about revolution.
I can bet my balls that no under employed person will risk going for a demo/ sit down at the expense of missing going to work.
Nobody organized the revolution in Tunisia. It was spontaneous. The tipping point is when the public discovers they hold the real power.
The situation in Tunisia had been ripe waiting for a trigger. All it took was a street trader being harassed by police and he set himself on fire.
Two weeks ago, police tried to arrest a bodaboda guy in the CBD. He fought for his bike forcing the cops to shoot in the air but the guy still snatched his bike from them and took off. The public was of course cheering for the guy.
Today, I doubt any jubilee politician can dare show his face in downtown Nairobi. The anger is almost at boiling point.
