ugly incident occurred at
Luanda Kotieno beach in
Kisumu. A vehicle belonging to
Agriculture minister Sally
Kosgey was ordered off a
ferry headed for Mbita Point,
to give room for Ida Odinga's
motorcade of three cars. The
minister, just like Ida, was
heading to Rusinga Island to
attend the burial of
nominated MP, Millie
Odhiambo's mother.
It was reported that Sally had
arrived in time for the 12
o'clock ferry and it had
already departed before Mrs
Odinga or her aides, called
the ferry manager ordering
him to turn back and get her.
The ferry was by then full.
Therefore three vehicles had
to be ejected to give room for
Mrs Odinga. It was reported
that the ferry manager argued
that one of Ida's car be left
behind so that the minister's
car could be accommodated,
but she would hear none of
that. This was despite the
manager's assurance that he
would make sure the vehicle
was ferried in his next trip.
The ferry had to go without
Sally.
That incident was largely
given a media blackout,
except by a handful of
newspapers.
Now, in Miguna's new book
'Peeling Back The Mask', the
former advisor to the prime
minister states that on that
same day, he was informed
by Raila that his wife thought
that the minister she ejected
from the ferry was public
health minister Beth Mugo.
Miguna wonders whether it
really matters. He adds that
Sally asked him what would
happen when Raila became
president. Wow!!! If this is true, you know what they say about what goes around... sense of entitlement nayo? its like we owe people! All Mushrooms are edible! Some Mushroom are only edible ONCE!
