“There’s no point in impeaching a pickpocket and leaving a robber” – Senator Okiya Omtatah (25.09.2024).
“Riggy G to be shown the door. More than 116 MPs have signed the impeachment petition to impeach DP Rigathi Gachagua. Sources say that, the Impeachment motion is set to be tabled for debate anytime” (Record TV Kenya, 26.09.2024).
There is nothing new under the sun. Today is a day of remorse or vengeance. It depends on which side you are on. The Deputy President can threaten the Members of Parliament, heck he can sprinkle spite in the way of the President. However, it won’t amount to much.
The DP is reflective of the reign of the President. They had a joint ticket into the polls and ran together as allies. If things has changed and swiftly so. It’s because of politicking and a way of trying to sway influence. That’s not new either…
President William Ruto knows how it is to be left alone and felt abandoned, even when he was part of the team and got re-elected on the second term of Uhuru Kenyatta. He knows this and that’s why he built UDA in the middle of the term. Just so he could be stronger in the up-coming elections and create his own coalition to succeed.
Now the DP is feeling the pinch. His in the wind and there is several of reasons, speculations or sudden reactions to do so. Nevertheless, this is to scapegoat and make someone the perfect victim.
He says this about the matter: “The use of the criminal justice system to manage politics is an outdated political strategy that was used in the past. President William Ruto and I, on assuming Office, gave an undertaking to the People of Kenya that never again shall the criminal justice system be called upon to help in the management of politics. I am embarrassed that we are back to where we were. Harassment of my Office staff and Members of Parliament perceived to be close to me, has been going on for the last two months. I have learnt of a scheme to prefer trumped-up charges against three members of my staff and the MPs for Embakasi North Hon James Gakuya and Embakasi Central Hon Benjamin Gathiru Mejja Donk. This evil scheme is to associate them with violent demonstrations that took place in late June, in a futile attempt to soil my name and hopefully create grounds for the mooted impeachment proceedings against me” (Rigathi Gachagua, 25.09.2024).
We know that the DP can speak and speaks sometimes out of term. However, that isn’t anything new and similar instances has happened with others. Heck, the current President has done so dozens of times and it became sort of his stick. Therefore, he should know why the DP does and his a loyal ally too. If he wasn’t a loyal stooge, Ruto wouldn’t have picked him as the DP in the first place.
That’s why this is done to clean the house, but not really do it. Just finding the victim and using Riggy G’s fall to look better. That’s the gist here. It doesn’t change the realities on the ground or how the government is operating. Alas, that is the main issue. The main culprit is on top and his is trying to skate away from it all.
While Riggy G is the one that must take the blunt force and go away. Meanwhile, the laurels and the power remain in the hand of Ruto. That’s the reality here and we can all see it coming. Peace.





“Blogger Aoko says that DCI officers asked, on who told her that Soipan Tuya is pregnant. What kind of pettiness is this?” (Alinur Mohamed, 20.08.2024).
“They did not arrest Aoko to jail Aoko. They wanted information on how there bedroom affairs are leaking into the public. We can all see that from today’s posts on Aoko’s TL. The Abduction was a design to compromise her into giving information. I think DCI does not know women born in Nyakach” (I Am Chege, 20.08.2024).
“Revealed: Defense CS Soipan Tuya behind the arrest of blogger Maverick Aoko for allegedly insinuating she’s romantically entangled with President Ruto. Tuya is also on the spot for previously using state agencies to frustrate her ex-husband Stephen Kudate” (Mambo Msete X, 18.08.2024)
Well, what happens between the sheets that should be the business between the two persons who happens to be between the sheets. That “dirty” laundry isn’t for the public, but we know that sort of gossip or hearsay can spiral out of hand.
Scophine Aoko Otieno aka Maverick Aoko has felt this the last week. As she was kidnapped and abducted on Friday. Apprehended, kept in custody since Friday and produced to the Courts on Monday. Which the filings of charged changed, but the importance was the violation of the Computer Misuse and Cybercrimes Act. Which has become of the vast importance of the state.
The Republic and its authorities had the need to address the rumours or hearsay of the blogger. The tweets and whatnot that she produced of late. They were so spicy and so heinous, that she couldn’t be left out on the digital streets. She had to be apprehended and charged over it.
The state is charging her for speaking about socialites and celebrities, but we all know the gist. She wouldn’t be apprehended and get charged this way if it was the ones involved on the charge sheet that mattered. That would have happened differently and with other causes of action. Secondly, the state wouldn’t have made the case and taken it so personal. That’s when you know the gig is up.
This is a about a rumour or allegation of an illicit affair of the President and possibly a side-piece. A tale of a side-chick and the prominent hound-dog. That’s what it is… an ancient tale really of a under-wraps love-affair and unholy alliance. As the President is supposed to be an religious man and so is his wife. The First Lady must be hurt if this is true. She’s just a figure-head and busy body praying. While the hubby is busy chewing other ladies in his spare-time.
Alas, that got to sting, especially, if she sits with in the chambers of power and in important meetings. Government business is ensured, and she is involving herself with His Excellency. That’s sort of affair that can cause lots of harm and destruction. Not only to the family itself, but to the trust between government entities. As they are beholden to the goodwill between the lovebirds and whatever affair they got going on.
This is why the questions remain and the act of the state starts speculations really quick. If the words of Maverick Aoko were worthless and only hearsay. The DCI and the authorities wouldn’t have acted like this. They wouldn’t have done this on behalf of socialites in the city. No, they wouldn’t have done this for musicians or for prominent persons. No, they do this to shield people in high-ranking offices and who matters to the throne.
What ever happening behind the scenes that’s up to whoever deems fit. However, it becomes even more dire and more important when you involve the authorities. When the state itself is in the midst of it and the actions are made. That’s when the rumours and allegations spiral out. We don’t know the truth and we aren’t supposed to know it either. Only the two persons who shares it is supposed to know.
The CS is maybe involved or she’s not. The President is maybe having an affair or his not. However, the case pending and the case created against the blogger only begs the question. Who did what? Why did the state interfere? Who sanctioned it and why did they make it happen?
Because, this isn’t a winner, but a loose-loose game. A game that only opens a floodgate and rightfully so. Now people will ask further questions and wants to know more. Since they acted on the blogger after the fact. They are now targeting her and whatever she does, which means they want it either gone or completely forgotten about. This story they want to kill. If it wasn’t a story. They wouldn’t have apprehended her and charged her to begin with. Peace.



“When the country was burning, former Pres. Kenyatta called me and asked me to reach out to Pres. Ruto to find a solution to the issues being raised by Gen Zs. We talked and I told him my thoughts and how to deal with the situation” (…) “I am not in government. We never agreed with Ruto that we should have a coalition government. He requested me to help him identify people from my side to serve in his administration. I did exactly that. I am confident we shall move forward as a nation” (…) “I have shown interest in the AUC chairperson’s job, but I will not be settled down there in Adis Ababa when my home country is in turmoil. It is my responsibility to help stabilize the country for posterity” – Raila Odinga (13.08.2024)
The Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) leader is trying to forge a narrative and make him seem likable after assessing the situation and finding a way to have more prominence. We knew that risk was there and evident when he started to apply for the AUC Chairperson role. Because the old man needs support from the government to even be able or be eligible to apply for the role itself.
Now his just carrying the water and trying to be independent. While his party is in direct association and working with the government. A coalition partner by default and his allies are appointed into the cabinet as Cabinet Secretaries. That’s not just a random squad of people, but leaders and representatives he trusts. People who have rose through the ranks of his party and has been elected by his party too. Therefore, he is thinking people are blind and not understanding the ideals here.
Odinga can pin and put blame on Kenyatta. That Kenyatta was the reason for the CS’s of ODM becoming a part of government. Nevertheless, they have all egos and agency to act on their own. Kenyatta can ask and petition someone, but that doesn’t make way for others. It jus shows Kenyatta’s importance in the Azimio coalition. As Odinga is using Kenyatta’s presence as a reason to act or even participate in government. Which is narrowminded, as Odinga could do it all on his own and didn’t need Kenyatta’s blessing.
It just shows that the three leaders all know each other and dances when needed. This is no Building Bridges, but it is a “broad based” government. Alas, it is giving leverage to Ruto and at the same time power to Odinga. It is just in the open and everyone can see the motives. This isn’t helping the causes of the Gen Z but feeding a political elite and giving Ruto a little more legitimacy.
This is Odinga giving way and taking part of a regime for his personal gain. Just like the handshake. Now its now process of a BBI, but there is a golden carrot in the end of the AUC chairperson role, which gives him a reason to participate and join hands with the Kenya Kwanza. That is benefiting Ruto and gives Odinga excuses to clean the hands of the President. Instead of actually trying to listen to the Gen Z and their grievances. His instead incorporating himself and his party within the realm of power. That’s not an action of a opposition or a minority. No, that’s a governing party and a direct ally of the government that does. This is why Odinga is insincere and trying to play both sides at the same time, which isn’t possible.
Odinga is trying to pull at trick and get of the hook. While his now part of the government by default and association. Also, his this friendly because it benefits him. It gives him acceptance and ability to seek office within the AU. Which gives him all the perspective and reason to betray any cause. Just so he can eat and get into prominence, yet again. Peace.
