In summary
Kibaki’s administration could be summarized by very few words – selfish, tribalistic, corrupt, and characterized by indescribable level of impunity and arrogance.
We have seen the kind of skewed development plans and distribution of prime government jobs in favor of people from his ethnicity.
For instance, look at the 10 commissions and two independent offices that the constitution created.
Is there any of these 12 institutions that is either not headed by Kibaki’s lieutenant or a member in any of them?

Lessons that should be learnt
We must learn from history that many relatively developed countries like the following disintegrated:
- The former Yugoslavia disintegrated because of tribalism/ethnicity!
- Nigeria with superhighways and oil is less peaceful because of high level of corruption, triablism and religious strife.
- Libya with one of the best road and electricity infrastructure and vast oil reserves is smoldering in ethnicity and lack of peace.
- Democratic Republic of Congo with immense mineral and natural wealth is up in ethnic flames and incessant wars from election to election!

Intrastructure
This is should start with national highways that connect all parts of the country and those that have the greatest impact on development,
then move on to tertiary roads that Kibaki’s leadership started with.
Why should any leadership rush to start a new road and railway infrastructure (Lamu-South Sudan, Lamu-Ethiopia) when the Mombasa-Malava, Nakuru-Kisumu major railway lines that cut across the economically production regions of the country’s is decaying with unbelievable levels of neglect?. Why rush to try to connect the coast province to the South Sudan when the government of South Sudan is still struggling to create leadership structures as well still being involved in wars with the Sudan?

Constitution
A good leader plays by the law and the traditional already established!
The current government also went ahead to break the tradition of the retirement age that previous governments had established just to keep most of his buddies in government positions longer than necessary.The tradition was that elderly civil servants (after age 55) create room for a younger generation coming out of college and to ensure that they also get a chance to serve in the government and be proud of.
Did you know average life expectancy of Kenyans is in the tune of 45?
Now tell me how many will live to see their pension?

Tribalism
There is no ethnic community that is 33% of the country’s population!
The most populous community is only 17% of the total population and to allow 33% to persist in any public institution is to actually legalize tribalism.
What about communities which make less than 0.1% of the population?

Ganging up
Those who have acquired public assets and institutions through unethical means become very nervous when they hear of a possibility of Raila’s presidency!
That could explain why they have ganged up to malign other leaders who have great potential to become the next president, particularly Raila.
They do this in various political forums, media, and some in government official channels...

The Kibaki fiascos
Appointing Ringera for a second term without parliamentary approval,
the insertion of words in the new constitution at the government printers,
the under-the-table appointments of CJ/AG/DPP behind the PM's back,
forgery on the Police Service Commission rank list made in the OP,
the appointment of County Commissioners (a post that doesn't exist now) to ghost counties (to take effect after the election),
arm twisting the IEBC to announce the March 2013 election date, et al
These point to the fact that Kibaki is determined to prolong his stay, God forbid, if possible for ever.

Summing up
I can't say how I rue the day I voted for Kibaki in 2002!
In one year he proved beyond doubt I had been fooled by his pseudo democratic credentials!
We tried in 2007 to correct the anomaly and we did succeed, but failed to dislodge him thanks to an inept, invertebrate, tribal fanged ECK, hand-picked by Kibaki himself
