The events in Jubilee this week are reminiscent of the words of 18th century French counter revolutionary Jacques Mallet du Pan in his controversial but popular essay entitled “de Saturne, la révolution dévore ses enfants”. Loosely translated, the sage’s arguments was that like Saturn, revolutions eat their children.
Who would have imagined, a short year ago, that David Murathe would have resigned as vice chair of Jubilee and Moses Kuria would be on the verge of losing his seat courtesy of his utterances? In the lead up to the presidential elections, these two erstwhile gentlemen danced themselves lame fighting for the Jubilee duo’s re-election.
