The handshake – two years on

The handshake came into play because sections of the country had refused to move on after the 2017 elections, according to Nyeri Town MP Ngunjiri Wambugu.

 He believes that before the handshake, Kenya was facing serious civil unrest. We had weekly demos; some county governments were threatening to secede, some people wanted to stop paying taxes, we had some leaders saying they did not recognize Uhuru as President, NASA MPs and Senators were boycotting Parliament, a ‘swearing-in’ etc.
