Over time now, the debate as to whether Kenya needs an aristocrat or a son or daughter of a holoi polloi at the helm of the country's leadership has raged. This has created a binary argument, pitting the so-called hustler nation adherents against the pro- dynasties. For a casual observer, it appears that Kenyan populace has a wide chasm between those supporting occupations of the top echelon of the country's political leadership by either a peasant's or dynasty's descendant. However, deeply dug into, it's indisputable that no one in particular has declared that he/she wants to support a politician because the latter hails from a dynasty.
Not to mention the fact that no politician in this country has ever asked for a vote on the scorecard of having come from a dynasty. So the question arises, who are these dynasty candidates and the son of peasants’ candidates? It has become obvious that those who support President Uhuru Kenyatta, ODM leader Raila Odinga, or Baringo Senator Gideon Moi, ANC leader Musalia Mudavadi to mention a few, find themselves trapped in the web of being scorned as dynasty supporters.
