  It is true that Kibaki and Raila are walking the tight rope. My thinking is that Kibaki himself knows what happened at KICC and how he ended up being sworn behind the curtains at the State House. So then he should step a side if he is a true democrat and tell Kenyans that indeed something went wrong with the elction. Somehow he wont do it and Raila will still believe that he was rigged out.

  Raila should not forget the youths who barricaded the roads in Rift valley in pursuit of justice. I ask what will you tell the mothers of youths who are stll detained todate without trial? What about you who called for the mass action? What about the stoled election? Is Kibaki a candidate for Hague which lead to deaths?

  The article propagates the fallacy of generalization that it is communities that voted for either the President or the PM. Elections in Kenya are by secret ballot and each individual makes his or her choice. We never vote as communities. Remember people as close to Raila as Orengo and Anyang Nyong at one time were Railas rivals. For Ngilu she used to abuse him in public. The question is; in the last elections were there Luos who voted against Raila?. That is a question nobody can answer but there seems to be an agreement that all Kikuyus even babies voted for Kibaki. It is time that we stop propagate prejudice.

  Who is going to step aside?All leaders starting with President Kibaki are guilty! Are we going to form a caretaker Government? Is the Speaker going to be the acting President when Kibaki and Raila step aside pending investigations? Chronological events from election day points fingers to ECK and Kibaki's inner circle to have messed up with the elections and used the security forces to remain in power.
