I wonder how Kalonzo has managed to be the kingpin of Ukambani all this years, he lacks that chutzpah needed to lead a people, his speeches are dead, how weak are the sons and daughters of ukambani that nobody else can replace him. They need a leader with charisma
Be careful of inheriting the social obsession with finding what is wrong with everything. There is always something to indict, something to resent, something to rage against. But if your eyes are permanently trained on what is broken, you eventually become broken yourself.
