I never thought I would ever say this – but I am starting to feel sorry for the scion of the Burning Spear. I am not tearing yet, but the man from Gatundu is showing signs of being a lame duck. Jubilee’s Uhuru Kenyatta has chosen the worst time to develop feet of clay. I say so as someone who desperately supports Mr Kenyatta’s war on corruption. The war is turning out to be a boon for the lords of corruption.
Every time Mr barks, the lords of impunity snicker and shrug – and laugh all the way to the bank. The thieves figure Kenyatta is a toothless bulldog – with nary a bite. Is he checkmated and left to futile lamentations?
