Run up to the last general election the man from budelangi, was an ODM diehard, an eloquent speaker in public rallies, a democrat, an equal of a general in a military command, a troubleshooter for ODM and a supporter of RAILA ODINGA.. But unknown to many is that ABabu was in constant touch all the time with URP leader known as DP today, whereby when the electoral body declared UHURU the president elect, Ababus mind and soul changed...from being the loyal ODM MP to a mole, serving the interest of his paymaster whom he reported claimed was personal friend going back to the days when Ruto was still in ODM, "this personal friendship" defense, is what he put forward when he was asked in an ODM meeting prior to the aborted party election. Reliable source, confided in me, that Ruto wanted to groom ABABU for 2017 presidential chessboard game...and( plan A )which they both agreed on was to take over the ODM by any means possible, plan (B) was to use secretary general position to position himself as the sole voice of luyhia community. plan (C) Ruto, would appoint ABABU as his running mate 10 months to the general election of 2017. And it is on this basis that ABABU was seen several times visiting Ruto's office at the hight of party elections and thereafter staging a very expensive campaign to woo delegates like no other before with signs of choppers every where leading to the question, who was bankrolling Ababu's campaign and for what reason? Even if "MEN IN BLACK" disrupted the elections how many contestants were vying apart from ABABU? Why have they not attacked Raila? Did they not spend in the campaigns ? Is it possible the paymaster wants to see the fruits of his money and so Ababu has to betray his principles?
By Strive Masiyiwa A few weeks ago I went to the doctor. I will tell you what he said about my health at the end, but first read this: Twenty years ago, I arranged to meet a well-known British international businessman who invested a lot in Africa at the time. We agreed to meet for dinner at a leading hotel in London. After a good meeting, we started to walk out of the restaurant when he suddenly collapsed in the lobby. There was total pandemonium as they rushed to get medical assistance. Being London, an ambulance arrived in minutes. I jumped in the back with him as paramedics wrestled to keep him alive. He had had a heart attack and had to have triple bypass heart surgery. Sadly he died a few weeks later. He hadn't been sick and his sudden death surprised everyone. And yet as I reflected on it, and later discussed it with a doctor friend who knew him, I realized he was very laid back about his health despite having a hectic business life. Even during our dinner...
