I know you know people who know other people who are close to the heart of power.
Help me understand, why is jubilee not taking over this agenda from rao ? We all know by know iebc bosses will go home. Why wait for the matter to escalate? Today we have protests in 4 major towns. Exactly how cord wanted it to go.
Why are you falling for this not-so-well-hidden trap by cord ?
Think about a guy from kisii or nyamira or kuria or kakamega ? Aren't these the places you guys need the votes to avoid a run off ? Hope you remember ngilu brought in 100k votes from kitui and now they are gone.
Boss I only write my own opinions here I know no one in jubilee personally, I do not hold brief for anyone (By the way why is it assumed you have to know someone up there in order to have similar sentiments? ama nikuzoea kukaa opposition na activism.
Here is the thing, all I am advocating for is the rule of law and adherence to the constitution.It may look silly at the moment but wait until that day when you actually need leaders to stick to the law. What Cord is doing at the moment has nothing to do with IEBC, do you know why? Becoz it doesn't even come close to guaranteeing them a win in the next elections, far from it. Like what @ SKMUSYOKA - Former Vice President once said on Twitter, Rao flourishes in chaos and violence.
Had they tried constitutional means to remove IEBC and got a raw deal then that would be a different story, they haven't even tried. A lot of mpigs have a bone to chew with IEBC even from jubilee so whats stopping cord?
What makes you sure the fate of IEBC is concluded, they said the same thing about referendum, sijui national dialogue etc. Also why is there pressure to crucify IEBC without a fair hearing. If they have been involved in any malpractice and/or corruption then why don't we let the law take its cause. Haraka ni ya nini?
Lastly, in a democracy its all about those yearning for leadership positions persuading the electorate to vote for them so sielewi hii maneno yako ya "you guys need the votes" because personally I have no interest on what happens outside my sphere of habitat in terms of political policy, kila mtu achague ule anataka. If your preferred choice wins, well and good if he/she doesn't, they live to vie another day.
