Raila is not Kenya's problem, address real issues of concern

Some political novices, regardless of their parties, and those benefiting from being in power should reflect before they make unhelpful contribution to public discourse. Media have correctly called out elected leaders who have run out of ideas on how to respond to opponents, instead, opting to call for arrests and even agitating for orders to shoot and kill protesters.

There ought to be a difference between the Bunge la Wananchi, County Assemblies and the National Parliament. The difference is not about the buildings and trappings of power. It is in the level of political responsibility and a matching constructive discourse.
