There is more to leadership than feasting

Oratory doesn’t come easy. Sincere utterances have, too often, been misconstrued to create mountains out of mole hills. Perhaps buoyed by the positive reception Raila got at Ntimama’s burial, the priest who inadvertently penetrated President Uhuru Kenyatta’s guard did not think the analogy of unity, development and Raila unifying Luos was offensive.

But, for crying out loud, the man is a guileless priest, not a political scientist or hapless politician deserving of the vicious dressing down he got from a man whose mere presence is intimidating. That bit about “tutajuana” (we will get acquainted) was a bit ominous, if you ask me.
