Recent events and pronouncements by politicians, more so from the Jubilee Coalition, point to a well orchestrated move to shove Tobiko out of office. This is the same script that was used to remove Matemu from the Ethics and Anti corruption Commission (EACC). The only difference is the hunted. The hunters are the same - and as to who they are, ask Irene Keino and Dr. Rachel Onsongo. And so, what's the problem or objective of this well objective. First, and this is a great sin, Tobiko has lived to his promise during his vetting to be independent and non partisan on discharging his duties as the Public Prosecutor. That means that some big fishes are unlikely to have him do their bidding. Is you don't believe this, ask Engineer Kamau. During his late mother's funeral, Dr Kamau gave a hint on the source of his woes. Second, Tobiko is accused of not taking instructions from EACC to prosecute or acquit. He has pointed to the shoddy job by both EACC and the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI). Of all the files passed to the DPP, only under a handful have ended up in court. Of these, a good number could be dismissed by the courts. Remember about a list of over 175 suspected of corruption was passed to the H.E. the President by EACC. Three, there was mention of soon presenting the Anglo Leasing cases to court. Is someone trying to prepare a way of sanitizing the cases through official acquittal and closing the cases. If so, then Tobiko could be seen as a stumbling block given his demonstrated independence. So far, they are in a position to influence shoddy investigations at the EACC, after getting rid of Matemu, and at the DCI. what is left is to have a friendly DPP. And they're vicious. Is Tobiko likely to be lured to quit on a promise of appointment to ambassadorial position? Would he rather wait like Irene Keino and Matemu? Only time will tell.
