RAILA ODINGA to be probed by police over claims that KDF assisted UHURU/ RUTO in rigging march 4th 2013 general elections

uhuruto.jpg Former Prime Minister, Raila Odinga, is currently swimming in murky waters, after the Director of Public Prosecutions, Keriako Tobiko, directed the Inspector General of Police, David Kimaiyo, to probe Raila Odinga over his allegations that Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) assisted in rigging last year’s Presidential poll. In his letter to the IG on Thursday, Tobiko says he received a written complaint from Kiharu MP, Irungu Kangata, dated January 28 concerning remarks allegedly made by Raila during a CORD rally in Kisumu earlier that month. The DPP also directed Kangata to present his informant to the Director of Criminal Investigations to make a formal complaint and record a statement so that full investigations may be commenced. In a letter to the DPP, Kangata said he received information from a man named, Pesa Shayo, who attended the said public rally at Jomo Kenyatta Grounds on or about January 17, where Raila Odinga uttered words to the effect that military personnel were used to eject CORD supporters from the Bomas of Kenya, to enable President Uhuru Kenyatta clinch victory. The informant also said he heard Raila Odinga tell a crowd that former President Mwai Kibaki was aware of rigging plans. Tobiko certified the matter as urgent and ordered Kimaiyo to probe Raila over the allegations.

The boys who were assigned to escort me to Mungania dorm looked at my stunted height and loudly wondered how I would survive in Beast's school.  "Who is Beast?" I asked in bewilderment. "You will know." Musyoki answered curtly. It didn't take me long to know who Beast was.

He was tall, imposing, burly and endowed with a thunderous voice that could re...

Political Tumbocrats

A tumbocrat is not interested with common good but personal good. A tumbocrat has no vision but appetite for being near high table of power  and feeding on crumbs.   Tumbocrats are greatest obstacles to development in our country.

They are good and articulate in arguments but they lack the moral authority because they don't value truth. Every political leader is surrounded by tumbocrats. They are the noise makers in social media and around leaders defending them. They peddle lies en create propagandas . They confuse the publ...
