May I start by saying that politics will be a dominant feature in Kenyans life in 2016. With 2017 elections just nearer, anybody who understands the character of Kenya’s politics would not expect less. The coalitions will also be taking shape and many will be positioning themselves to the apex of power and resources especially at the national level. The future of counties will increasingly become important. Forget the noise and sideshows of reducing counties – that won’t happen. If you understand the dynamics of Kenyans politics and the rough history of this country you would know the daring mess up of reducing counties , how futile an exercise it would be,. The future of this country is devolution if at all we want harmony. Divisive as they maybe, every community wants resources closer to them. After all people have seen and felt what can be achieved with devolved units if they were properly manned.
