Cord coalition either lost or was rigged out in kenya's general elections which were held in march 4th 2013,it all depend on which side of political divide one subscribes to.Either way cord 'lost' to jubilee alliance.The question which still remain unanswered is what steps the coalition has taken so far to prevent the repeat of 2013 come the next general elections.The electronic results transmission system which could have guarded against votes inflation in favour of one of the candidates failed, but who said we can't have a repeat of the same in future?Unless a tamper proof results transmission system is realized am sorry to say, we will have a repeat of 2013. In the meantime rather than cord coalition pushing for early procurement followed by vigorous testing to achieve a tamper proof system, the coalition is busy with unnecessary bickering only calling for disbandment of Iebc which in my opinion won't assure them a win if all other factors are held constant come 2017.Unless cord coalition addresses this issue now I fear they will remain in cold abit longer only foolishly claiming lt is the goverment in waiting.

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...
