All these positions are political. Its nonsense to say politics is involved politics has always been involved. Uhuru brought this to himself let him wallow in his failure

Threats are a pointer for lack of substance. It's sad senators cannot debate soberly without looking over their shoulders. A debate held six times without an amicable settlement shows how indecisive these characters are.

Its all politics. You eat the bread that is buttered, it was stupid for UK to think the handcheque was a blank cheque for him also

The formula is yet to be voted on. What failed is the ammendment to operationalize it in the FY 2022/2023 and not 2021/22 as proposed.

That said, the biggest gainers in the new formula will be nandi, kakamega, uasin gishu, siaya, nakuru, kisumu who will get about 1B extra each. Muranga will only get just a few more millions about 90m. Infact tharaka nithi will lose.

This bill is a typical case of "divide and conquer"! attempting to remind senators that they should vote for it because they will 'gain' at the expense of others while trumping on the spirit of the constitution that created the senate in the first place. Appealing to narrow primal interests to get numbers is an old tactic. This was the mindset of akina Moi and Kibaki... giving tokens to ethnic groups to rope them in. Remember akina Ojode turning down ministerial posts when akina Kibaki attempted to rope them in. I am very proud of Kakamega, Kisii, Nairobi and Kajiado and any other county that voted against this bill. They were shocked when they saw people vote against what appeared to be in their interest.

We should be striving at ending up in the 3rd picture not going back to the first! We have been there for a while and we all know it doesn't work
