Though the status quofor the President and Prime minister remain till the next election,acording to the seventh schedule to the draft,I suspect a sinister motive on each of the two political devides.
Could ODM be banking on the National Accord and reconcilliation Act being brought in conformity with the new constitution? - clause 2 of the seventh schedule to the new draft.
Could PNU be banking on the following premise by Mutahi Ngunyi? (Ref who will midwife new Kenya? - Excerpts from his Aug 2008 article says,
'Now we have to start all over again in search of a new order. The question now is this: who will midwife the new order? Who will deliver the new Kenya? A Kenya with a new constitutional and economic order; one with an equitable distribution of wealth and opportunities?
Let us begin with President Kibaki. Can he be the midwife? The answer is an absolute no. End of discussion.
What about his blue-eyed boys Mr Uhuru Kenyatta and Mr Kalonzo Musyoka? In my view,the two represent the old Kenya. The apparent Kibaki plan is to have Mr Musyoka succeed him and Mr Kenyatta to be Prime Minister.
This is not a deviation from the Kibaki strategy of 2007 in which he gunned for ‘‘one-tribe-and-abit’’. That is,so long as he had the Gema vote,all he needed was ‘‘abit’’ of support from everywhere. '
Could minimum reforms be the way forward?
