The Narc MoU that never was: Should Nasa be worried?

Nasa leaders after unveiling their flag bearer

As the National Super Alliance (Nasa) unveiled its presidential candidate at Uhuru Park, the same venue where former Head of State Mwai Kibaki was unexpectedly thrust onto the throne 15 years ago, the fate of the moribund National Rainbow Coalition (Narc) MoU must have worried the ‘weaker’ members of the Pentagon.   

The power agreement between Cord principals Raila Odinga, Kalonzo Musyoka, Moses Wetang’ula, ANC leader Musalia Mudavadi and Chama Cha Mashinani chief Isaac Rutto is reminiscent of the Narc deal between Kibaki, Kijana Wamalwa, Charity Ngilu, Kipruto arap Kirwa and LDP’s Kalonzo, Raila, Moody Awori and George Saitoti.
