President Uhuru Kenyatta and his Deputy President William Ruto must consider themselves very lucky people. Until last week, the political star of the Opposition coalition was on the rise and the country entertained the possibility of an opposition alliance as happened in 2002.
Then, the Opposition Rainbow alliance trounced Kanu, ending its 40-year hold on power. There has been talk of a National Super Alliance (NASA) to face Jubilee in next year’s election.
