I believe thatKenya has not changed and he should be very careful going forward.. Meanwhile, Sonko-Igathe it is..

I watched the debate hosted by an overly biased joe ageyo(he is so obviously ODM) and another pro-odm reporter okwara.

What i found amusing is that Sonko actually held his own despite the obvious contempt from the intellectuals. Infact PK and Muguna would make faces to the audience whenever Sonko referenced some chapter in the constitution or said something intelligent or even referenced his past record in the legislature..

The most dramatic scenario happened when Kidero(in his concluding remarks) foolishly asked the audience who they will vote for and everyone shouted Sonko! Our good dakatri turned red,then green and then blue. Luckily it was a live show and the not-so-bright ageyo or okwara could censor this.

I actually had rated Kidero highly but now i think Sonko has it all figured out and seems capable of running Nairobi

I have a feeling Odhiambo might just sneak back.

I hope not,I think sonko can do a better job of cleaning the kidero mess in garbage, matatu, roads and hawker issues, Igathe can deal with the white collar side of county business.

The debate was horrible, there were no issues discussed exhaustively as the time allocated to every respondent was too short, the questions were rather broad and meaningless.

The media was unprepared and did not challenge the respondents to substantiate their very thinly veiled reasoning. No fact checking of responses.

The participants veered off topic and targeted their opponents whenever they could not answer simple questions posed.

Miguna Miguna was actually very well prepared to debate and could articulate his position. The other 3 looked lost and vague with Kidero coming off as the worst of the lot.

This debate told us nothing.

I don't see how he will do this

He's uninspiring and has failed to showcase whatever he's done(I refuse to believe a governor can do zero in 4 years. My MP with 60M CDF funds can show you projects here and there!!)

Also, check 2013 figures. Roughman Waititu got 612K vs Kidero's 692K. That's at a time when the song everywhere(including wazua) was 'Governors should be managers, not politicians'-whatever that meant.

Now people have seen Kidero. I doubt they're impressed. When you hear people who voted for Kenneth in nominations in the greener side of the city say they will vote Sonko...

My biggest issue with Sonko is not even his rough nature. It's the unga connection. At least Kiambu did well to eject that other fellow in the industry though Mombasa will still give us another industry leader

Will be waiting...though I remember listening to some mountaineers around TMall area saying they can never vote Waititu. I know many who said the same. Maybe they were negligible. Like 5K? Kidero then had better goodwill than this time

By the way, Kenneth getting 300K votes will eat into whose votes?

It is only Sonko and Miguna and perhaps PK that are not basing their hopes on the tribal card.....The other day Kidero invited folk from KAG church and is on record telling KAG faithful that Mulembe people in Nairobi that form majority in KAG are 300k and that they should vote for him on the basis that mulembe = NASA and since Kidero = ODM and ODM = NASA so KAG = Kidero...hiyo arithmetic hata mimi ili ni lewesha..

Mulembe have been lied to that leadership will be given on a silver platter through the lake(just like in 2013 both the spineless ma-dvd and kalonzo are the common denominator). On the other hand Kenyans are being lied to that the "THIRD AND FINAL" liberation can only come if baba is president....note the emphasize on the word "final" but i digress

I can't see how. This will be a landslide win for Sonko. We're a tribal country. Last elections, Odhiambo got the the tribal votes, Kao votes plus the Watitu rejection votes, yet it was still too close to call. This time I hear Kaos are voting for baba presidential and their son Mbuvi governor. Last elections, Kaos voted overwhelmingly for senator Mbuvi, that's how he got the highest individual number of votes in the country outside the presidency. PK was rejected at nominations so he ain't getting the kyuk vote and if we talk of dividing the vote, won't Miguna divide Odhiambo's votes?

This guy has absolutely no effect on Odhiambo except perhaps being a gadfly.
