The fact that you have not bothered to
LOOK for the manifesto tells me that you have not done what you are asking people to do
It depends on which Raila manifesto you mean. There are at lease two - including one that was written to accommodate his sponsor. The other one was an underwhelming piece of work crafted like a bad MA thesis. Ndii's handiwork no doubt.
But, to be honest, who remembers Jubilees manifesto? What mattered are the many bromides it contained that Uhuruto have hammered at every stump, to the point that a child can recite them. That is the stuff on which elections are won, not long winded tomes that no one will read.
Baba has been been failed by his advisers, including the so called smart lawyers. For intance, whose smart idea was it that he should boycott the election?
