Prof Makau Mutua, you must respect Uhuru Kenyatta as your President now

I salute you from across the ridges. I am not in the habit of rebuttals but your piece in the Sunday Standard of November 26 left me agape. Sir, as the saying goes; Fill your beer tumbler slowly else you will spill half of it by froth.

Those who read your column religiously as I do will quickly notice an almost atavistic negativity towards President Uhuru Kenyatta. You seem to hold entrenched grievance against the person of Kenyatta. In your article, you boldly declare that ‘the legality of an action doesn’t amount to its legitimacy.’ Granted, you are a Professor of Law but allow me room for corrective edification.
