Kenyans are woke; it's no longer easy to throw wool over their eyes

Lugari Member of Parliament Nabii Nabwera contends it would have been irresponsible of Raila Odinga to let President William Ruto's besieged government to fall, hence the justification for a memorandum of understanding (MoU). At best, this is a feeble attempt to throw wool over our eyes, but it won't wash.

Two things attend presidential elections; continuity or fall of the sitting government. Other than the incumbent, everybody who contests the presidency has the intention of seeing the incumbent government falling, it is not to wish it well. Five times, that has been Raila's wish.
