Jubilee has squandered goodwill

The 2013 General Election ushered the Jubilee administration to power against the backdrop of monumental challenges that threatened its survival. Many pundits and "prophets" predicted Jubilee would run into a whirlwind of administrative crises and perhaps succumb to pressure. As the Jubilee government struggled to gain traction in providing leadership and governance, self-inflicted challenges that were multiplying by day submerged it, but it maintained a denial attitude.

Yet, the Supreme Court had just declared the coalition of President Kenyatta and his deputy William Ruto the winner on the heels of a disputed election that raised legitimacy questions. The election provoked resentment along tribal lines.
