A bemused Opposition is simply hobbling along

There is no love lost between former Prime Minister Raila Odinga and Deputy President William Ruto; once very close allies. Senator Kipchumba Murkomen believes Raila holds the key to Ruto’s ICC case at The Hague but cannot countenance anything CORD proposes. National Assembly Leader of Majority Aden Duale cannot, in a year of trying, find a kind word for the Opposition, and then out of the blue, the Opposition conjures up an impeachment motion against President Uhuru Kenyatta which it avers is designed to benefit the URP. Clearly, the tenon does not fit into the mortise.

Magnanimity is not a forte of any Opposition salivating at the prospects of occupying the high table; passing crumbs to supplicants and hoi polloi. This portrays the Opposition as being dishonest with itself and the public at large by purporting the impeachment Motion would solely benefit the DP who, constitutionally, would ascend to the presidency should Kenyatta be shown the door.
