The stranglehold with which Raila holds Luo Nyanza is cruel and certainly, not in the interest of the people.
The people are held under some manipulative charm, putting them to some hypnosis to ensure cultic loyalty!
This was so evident during the run up to the 2007 elections, and the subsequent PEV period.
During this period in Luo Nyanza:
Christian Hymns were corrupted in favour of the guy!
Catholics threatened to switch faiths because Cardinal Njue, had spoken against Majimboism which was interpreted to mean standing up to Raila!
Even after PEV had subsided, parents refused to send their children to school for some time, in solidarity with their idol!
The people were hoodwinked into self economic sabotage.
They scared the hell out of any business operations to keep goods and essentials in supply - leading to a very sorry state of affairs of self inflicted acute shortage of primary provisions.
Other leaders in the area who dare hold a divergent opinion from him are consigned to oblivion and eventually whipped to tow the line OR violently ejected from plying their politics there! - think of Tuju and Shem Ochuodho.
The likes of Nyong'o and Orengo were whiped into submission!
Surely these people need emancipation!
