WHAT DUALE IS NOT TELLING KENYANS

In the past few days, the majority leader Aden Duale has in various ways tried to divert the attention of Kenyans from the Jubilee government muddy corruption episodes by trying to relate some of the corruption scandals in the CORD led counties to the Former Prime Minister Raila Odinga. On Friday, Duale made an assurance that he would introduce a motion in parliament to discuss the involvement of Raila Odinga in the corruption problems facing some of the counties such as Kilifi County.

It however cannot escape the knowledge of any right-thinking Kenyan, one who is not as forgetful as Duale himself that, the Jubilee regime has often used diversionary tactics to sandwich Kenyans into confusion every time a mega scandal surfaces. If memories might serve Kenyans right, after the terrorist attack on Garissa University, an attack which Intelligence reports revealed to have been orchestrated by local Al-shabaab operatives in the North-Eastern region, Aden Duale called a press conference within the parliament Building and promised that he would release the list of terrorist financiers in Kenya, and expose their whole network, a statement which was timely and very convenient for a government which had clearly demonstrated lack of expertise in dealing with terrorism. It’s now one year and seven months since Duale’s proposition of the announcement of the terrorist financiers and sympathisers but the list is yet to be released.
