Mr King G, I bet calling someone ma**ya makes you feel good.

Pay your creditors when they ask for settlement of their debts at agreed terms. Don't pay them with slaps.

Let's slap all kiherehere people and call them ma**ya. Starting with the ones in wazua.

It's not that Kidero's party leader doesn't like him,... it appears he's scared of him - BIG difference. The question would be why?

I think the answer lies in the perception of the future. Some quarters - and I tend to believe this, so this is subjective - believe that it's because in a popularity contest within the party, the Governor might end up being more popular than his party leader. This would end the party leader's 2017 hopes, and therein lies the problem.

Add to this the fact that Kidero has been very chummy with the President and is forging paths unavailable to his party leader (locally and abroad - adding to that 2017 attractiveness), and one can see why the fear is being misinterpreted to be dislike.

This can be illustrated with a parable (as told by MuchNo... sorry, I don't know enough about soccer to make mine appropriately sporty). When a mother has two sons - one a rabbel-rouser and the other a hard working goody two-shoes - both of whom are vieing for her attention, she tells them that she loves them equally. Lakini, she secretly lets goody two-shoes into the kitchen every day to enjoy a sumptuous meal, while serving the rabbel-rouser githeri and blaming hard times for the poor quality serving.

This appears to be the problem in the CORD camp - Kidero is running the most important elected office that the party landed, and he'd been doing so with aplomb and in his stride, courting local and international influential leaders with seeming ease that belied the effort required (until this incident... in fact, he had just come from a meeting with Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan and the Nigerian businessmen in tow - including one Aliko Dangote, Africa's wealthiest individual; funny how the rich crowd together, eh? One of Kenya's richest men courting Africa's.... but, I digress).

Meanwhile, the party leader is constrained to making noise on the sidelines. If I were said party leader, I would loathe such a party member... and I'd be scared mafi-less of the man too!

Another impossible proposition, even yt2 tried to pull out of the petition after seeing other petitioners being 'slapped' with heavy costs, the ruling may be today but the outcome is clear, even in the recount Kidero gained more votes (x10) what waititu gained, Kidero is here to stay and he is the best governor Nairobi could have, many of us have no doubt about that!

Admin playing games with my user name! Lakini haidhuru everyone knows who is who!

Ignore this clown

Yes... I repeat, Kidero has the biggest office that was won on a CORD ticket in the last election. He is the people's choice in Nairobi, which currently accounts for the majority of Kenya's economic activity.

No matter which way you slice it, he will remain in the local limelight as long as he's Governor of Nairobi because he's in a very bright place. He doesn't need to leave Nairobi County... his profile is national.

The fact that he hails from Majengo and that he leads Nairobi County - Kenya's most multi-ethnic centre - will make his popularity cut across ethnic lines like a hot knife through butter. If I were RAO, I would be very scared indeed.

All this assumes he survives slap-gate.
