In this week that the Moslem and Christian faithful embark on fasting to mark Ramadhan and Lent, respectively, I will be gentle and refrain from calling any politician a liar or a thief—even when it’s manifestly clear that’s what they are.

For now, I will steer clear of the Auditor General’s wide-ranging disclosures that exposed the liars and thieves in government. Rather, I will accept Prezzo Bill Ruto’s response that the audits are the handiwork of “cartels” who are hell-bent on discrediting his efforts in making Kenya great again.
