Nepotism is the new cancer in Elgeyo Marakwet County

There is nothing like tribes in Elgeyo Marakwet County that can warrant tribalism. Basing on the Wikipedia definition of 'tribe', I think it is much safer to say that there are only two tribes in EMC that is, the tribe of the powerful and the powerless; leave alone the Keiyos or Marakwets. What we have are clans carved out of the larger 'powerful' tribe.

Clannism has always been cited as the major stumbling block to the achievement of unity in the vast EMC County. Clannism and nepotism will kill this county as politicians and the electorate talks of 'my tribe'. Devolution has made politics more violent and local than ever. Thanks to this thing called devolution, we can now clearly tell where the problem with our region in as far as cohesion and integration are concerned.
