PM, DPM attacks bad for democracy


The ugly war of words between Prime Minister Raila Odinga and his former ally Musalia Mudavadi political camps is unfortunate, a blow to our young democracy and recipe for political instability.
This bitter exchange, if not checked, poses a real threat to peaceful campaigns and elections and it is important for the two camps to exercise a ceasefire.

The trend is likely to poison the already volatile and toxic political environment in the country thus, polarising and dividing our motherland further. The overall consequences are just but too dear to contemplate.
Already, Kenya has had more than enough of political squabbles and currently, we Kenyans are extremely facing more tragedies and crises in the name of insecurity, land slides and floods, road accidents, massive corruption and unprecedented impunity that has substantially damaged our reputation and it makes us look as if we are ever at war with ourselves.
