Uhuru, Raila have more to do after handshake

My sabbatical is over. I am back today, and every Friday as has been the case over the past decade. I took a six-month break from writing. I watched the post-electoral drama and final rapprochement between the two main rivals from the sidelines, merely as an editor trying his best to satisfy readers or while enjoying the village breeze.

It is from the sidelines that I witnessed, with my TV remote control in hand, the surprise handshake between President Uhuru Kenyatta and his fiercest rival Mr Raila Odinga that dramatically changed the direction and vibe of our simmering political under-currents. One could say the handshake put our eyes on vive (Virtual Reality Beyond Imagination) as the young say of their new multi-dimensional movies.
